Description
The Yield by Tara June Winch is a poignant and powerful novel that explores the complexities of culture, language, and tradition. When Albert "Poppy" Gondiwindi, a member of the indigenous Wiradjuri tribe, is faced with his impending death, he sets out to pass on the language and traditions of his people to his granddaughter, August. As August returns home from Europe to attend her grandfather's burial, she is met with a mix of emotions - grief, anger, and sadness - as she confronts the painful memories of her past. Determined to make amends and honor her grandfather, she embarks on a quest to save their land from being repossessed by a mining company. Guided by the voice of her grandfather, she delves into the past, uncovering the stories and secrets of her people and the land that has been their home. Told through three masterfully woven narratives, The Yield is a celebration of language and a powerful exploration of what makes a place truly home.
