Mura Solwata Kosker
By: Ellie Gaffney AM
Published by: eContent Management, Pty Ltd
I was born on 18 August 1932. I am a Torres Strait ‘Solwata Woman’, Wagadagum Tribe, of the Kadal and Dangal Totems. My father was Tomi Loban from Banda Neira, Indonesia. He was a pearl shell grader on Thursday Island. My mother was Geti Loban (nee Summers) from Mabuiag Island, Torres Strait. This book I am writing is about the journey I wish to share with readers. It has been 24 years since my first and only book Somebody Now was published and I have been approached by young Torres Strait women to document achievements since then. My family also have encouraged me to try and accept this challenge because my medical problems restrict me, with time spent in hospital, and my physical and mental capacity of endurance. So, thank you Sylvia Tabuai for raising the issue. My book is based on memory and reflection. There are many issues still facing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and I must put down my thoughts about them. I leave behind in this book some ideas for the future so that others may learn from them. Ellie Gaffney AM

Mutton Fish
By: Cruse, Beryl; Stewart, Liddy; Norman, Sue
Published by: Aboriginal Studies Press
This is the story of the Aboriginal people of the south coast of New South Wales as told through the metaphor of Haliotis (mutton fish or abalone). Haliotis is a subsistence food – easy to find and harvest, rich in energy and accessible when the beaches are freely open to all. At times, the abalone story seems almost secondary to the fascinating picture of everyday Aboriginal life, especially in the 1950s and 1960s.
