📚 Kim Scott
Noongar novelist Kim Scott grew up in Albany, a childhood he describes in his recorded oral history. He became a teacher before developing a writing career that includes True Country, Benang and That Deadman Dance. His work has twice received the Miles Franklin Literary Award. Alongside fiction, Kayang & Me explores family history and Noongar knowledge. The Great Southern connection begins with his Albany upbringing and extends through his engagement with the histories, language and communities of Western Australia’s south coast.
