Provides insights into aspects of traditional Aboriginal lore, and the feelings of the people who belong to Kakadu and how they read their country. The text includes reproductions of bark paintings and artefacts from coastal Arnhem Land.
Bill Neidjie was born at Alawanydajawany along the East Alligator River, Australia, sometime between 1911 and 1913. He grew up on his Father's traditional country in the Northern Territory where he was immersed in Aboriginal culture, law, language, song, and ceremony.
Story About Feeling is a profound and deeply philosophical reflection on all aspects of this life, and the next. Following Bill's oral tradition, the text echoes his words and thoughts, gently moving between subjects that are rooted in both spiritual and environmental realms.
