Roots brings us thirty of the best short memoirs chosen from more than 2000 entries in the inaugural SBS Emerging Writersrsquo; Competition.
Offering a snapshot of contemporary Australia, this diverse collection of stories explores love, family, loss, culture, sexual awakening and the abiding connections to people and place that make us who we are. Told with utterly fresh perspectives and a rich vein of literary talent, these stories are an invitation into the unique and intimate worlds of everyday Australians.
Hardie Grant and SBS champion the voices of often underrepresented Australians, and support the discovery and development of emerging talent to contribute to greater diversity in Australian storytelling
