A thoroughly absorbing, must-read examination of why Australia’s relationship with India might hold the key to our future, by federal MP Andrew Charlton

In this interview, David Marr speaks on his highly anticipated new book, Killing for Country: A Family Story – a gripping reckoning with the bloody history of Australia’s frontier wars. 

As the Federal Court case between the Yindjibarndi community of the Pilbara region and the Fortescue mining operation continues, Title Fight author Paul Cleary has you covered for the past, present and possible outcomes of the conflict.

Welcome to another instalment of Behind the Book. In this series, we chat to the people who bring you the books you love from Black Inc. – from the names you know to those you definitely don’t. Today, we’re speaking to the author of Quarterly Essay 91: Lifeboat, Micheline Lee. 

Caring or careless? In this powerful and moving essay, Micheline Lee tells the story of the National Disability Insurance Scheme, a transformative social change that ran into problems. For some users it has been "the only lifeboat in the ocean," but for others it has meant still more exclusion.

Black Inc.’s bestselling Growing Up series is visiting the uniquely beautiful Torres Strait.

Coming in September, My Father and Other Animals, The Echidna Strategy, Divided Isles and Lifeboat

‘When people say this is about changing Australian identity, it's not. It's about location; we are located here together, we are born here, we arrive here, we die here and we must coexist in a peaceful way. The fundamental message that many elders planted in the Uluru Statement is that . . . the country needs peace, and the country cannot be at peace until we meet; the Uluru Statement is the beginning of that.’ —Megan Davis, Voice of Reason, Quarterly Essay Issue 90
