The Last Pack of Dingoes: Stories

Wongar's tales are imbued with a profound concern for the adverse conditions facing Australia's diminishing indigenous tribes. In a uniquely abbreviated prose form, Wongar blends intriguing vignettes of contemporary predicaments and elements of myth and fantasy, all liberally flavored with humorous overtones. The wry narrative appears to be evidence of a skeptical eye observing white people's ways and their negative impact on Australia's vanishing native population. Wongar's revelatory depictions embrace essential beliefs of the Aboriginal culture in a compelling literary style. Alice Joyce
