The war of the worlds
Pearson, Noel, 1965-2015
Book
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.
