Australia is often referred to as The Lucky Country - a land of economic opportunity and vast natural resources. But how does this myth square up against the true experiences of Indigenous and culturally diverse Australians living in our nation's most densely populated regions? In this original and eclectic new anthology, emerging and established writers from First Nations, migrant and refugee backgrounds reveal the true wealth and beauty of Australia's cultural melting pots.
