Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "Is that you . . . ?" Matron's voice would ring out across the dormitory. In that pause sixty little girls would stop in their tracks, waiting to hear who was in trouble. All too often the name called out would be that of the high spirited dormitory girl Ruthie.In the Depression years Queen…sland's notorious Cherbourg Aboriginal Mission became home to four-year-old Ruth until her late teens when she was sent out to serve as a domestic on a station homestead. Ruthie is the central character in this lively and candid memoir of institutional life. Her milestones and memories reflect the experiences of many dormitory girls. The strong and lasting bonds that developed between them helped to compensate for family love and support denied them by the disruptive removal policy of the day.An inspiring life story, this remarkable memoir won the prestigious David Unaipon Award in 1998. In her recently released sequel Bittersweet Journey Ruth recounts, with characteristic humour and honesty, a dormitory girl's life after the Mission. Presents an autobiography, which not only documents Ruth Hegarty's life, but also gives an account of Aboriginal history and government practice in Australia. This book won the 1998 David Unaipon Award for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander writers. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
