Synopsis

To its first people, Trouwerner was the world. They lived there according to the seasons and ancient traditions, as their ancestors had done for countless generations. Then the island was discovered by Europeans. It became a penal colony called 'Van Diemen's Land' and everything changed.

Through the lives of one man and his kin, these 16 short stories chronicle the human tragedy behind the colonization of Tasmania from 1791 to 1835.
