A writer's journey into her own personal history and how she spun the web of fiction around it.
Following on from the hugely successful novel, 'The Secret River', comes this behind the scenes audiobook of Kate Grenville's journey into her own family history, a quest to find her convict ancestors and the shift in perception she has about her family's place in a new, wild land. 'Searching for the Secret River' is not just about history but about imagination and the creation of fiction with its wrong turns, massive breakthroughs and personal discoveries. It is a fascinating window into the writer's world and work process, beautifully articulated and read by the author.
