"This is one of my all time favorite books. The Aboriginal culture is the most facinating and deep culture that still exists. This book portrays a Western women's jouney when becoming part of an Aboriginal tribe. You learn with her how this universe works from the oldest living inhabitants. I highly recommend this book to everyone young and old."
"I was uneasy about this book. I've spent a lot of time researching Australian Aboriginal cultures, and there were a lot of things described in this book that seemed fabricated. It really reminded me of Kabul Beauty School.
The things that I learned from the book I was surprised about so I looked them up and found them to be inaccurate.
The book has been rejected by the Australian Aborigines as an offensive and misleading book and Marlo Morgan has admitted that the story is fictional. Yet, the book is still being published and there is nothing within that proclaims it to be fictional. Instead it is labeled as a memoir of her experiences.
Please don't read the book...it is just misleading. I'd recommend Bruce Chatwin's Songlines or Rabbit Proof Fence (2002 film) for entertaining and enlightening information on Australian Aborigines. Otherwise there are several excellent texts that provide much more accurate information."
"This is the third set of Marlo Morgan books I have purchased for the purpose of exposing more people to this wonderful story.
Amazingly these books are on their own "Walk About" and I have been blessed with new friendships, souveniers and information into these wonderful people.
These books are not to be left on the shelf, but in the hands of people who appreciate this Aborigine Culture."
