What readers are saying
Readers have mixed reactions to the play's exploration of Australian history and identity. While many appreciate its themes of survival, racism, and the unique historical context, some find the execution unsettling and difficult to engage with. The intertextual elements and character depth are praised, though the overall tone is criticized by a few reviewers.
