Sinopse
Características

On the periphery of the fast-moving city of Perth, Aboriginal teenagers eke out a living full of violence, sex, lawlessness and poverty. Every revolution needs a leader and there is no question in Alans mind that he is that leader. For inspiration he goes to Noorak, the law holder of his people, and hears the heroic tales of Sandawara, the last of the warriors, who died defending his land and his people against the white man in the Kimberleys. So Alan names himself and becomes the new Sandwara and the rest of the unemployed teenage Aborigines of his mob take the names of Sandawaras followers. In his crash pad, a broken-down old house, the new Sandawara plots and schemes the revolution.The story of this mob of anti-heroes, of a farcical inefficient revolution, gives a vivid portrayal of the new and frightening world of rootless youth, who lack identity and purpose and shoot as easily as they love because neither act has meaning.It seems to me a feat of no mean order that Mudrooroo has come so close to creating a heroic archetype of such near mythical power. - Thomas Shapcott, ABC Books & Writing
