'How many Australians born in the 137 years since Truganini's death
learnt her legend and scarcely thought deeper about the enormity of
the loss she represented, and the history that led to it? Her
spirit casts a long shadow over Australian history, but we have
nearly all of us found a way to avert our eyes from its meaning.'
In The War of the Worlds, Noel Pearson considers the shadow over
Australia's history- the question of genocide, in early Tasmania
and elsewhere. With eloquence and passion, he explores the
'emotional convulsions of identification and memory' that he feels
on encountering these events. Re-reading Dickens and Darwin,
Pearson acknowledges the 'fatal logic' of the colonial project, and
seeks to draw out its meaning for Australians today.
