Culture and the Creative Spirit

About
In Nardi Simpson’s The Belburd, the author and musician reimagines the history of Sydney in a story that spans a contemporary setting and the 18th century, inspired by stories of Barangaroo and Bennelong. Dirrayawadha by Anita Heiss similarly resurrects a crucial time in Australian history in a story that follows Aboriginal warrior and resistance leader Windradyne during the frontier wars of the 1820s. Nardi and Anita speak with Kate Mildenhall about blending history with imagination and drawing on culture in their work.Date
