The sign taunts a fool into feeling some sense of achievement, some kind of end - that you have reached a destination in the very least. Yet as the sign states, Darnmoor is merely a gateway, a waypoint on the road to where you really want to be. Darnmoor is the home of the Billymil family, three generations who have lived in this 'gateway town'. Race relations between Indigenous and settler families are fraught, though the rigid status quo is upheld through threats and soft power rather than the overt violence of yesteryear. As progress marches forwards, Darnmoor and its surrounds undergo rapid social and environmental changes, but as some things change, some stay exactly the same. The Billymil family are watched (and sometimes visited) by ancestral spirits who look out for their descendants and attempt to help them on the right path. But as secrets start to be uncovered, the town will be rocked by a violent act that forever shatters a century of silence. Full of music, Yuwaalaraay language and exquisite description, Song of the Crocodile is a lament to choice and change, and the unyielding land that sustains us all, if only we could listen to it. 'Simpson's writing attains a rare quality of grace in the novel, the prose lyrical and grounded at the same time . . . skilfully weaving the profound into the everyday' The Saturday Paper'exquisite . . . Simpson explores the enduring legacy of violence and racism, in a narrative enriched by beautiful descriptions of the landscape.' Sydney Morning Herald'lyrical and evocative' Sunday Age'a captivating saga from an astonishing Aus Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
