Doctor Wooreddy's Prescription for Enduring the Ending of the World (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu
Reviews
Description
The young Wooreddy recognised the omen immediately, accidentally stepping on it while bounding along the beach: something slimy, something eerily cold and not from the earth. Since it had come from the sea, it was an evil omen.
Soon after, many people died mysteriously, others disappeared without a trace, and once-friendly families became bitter enemies. The islanders muttered, 'It's the times', but Wooreddy alone knew more: the world was coming to an end.
In Mudrooroo's unforgettable novel, considered by many to be his masterpiece, the author evokes with fullest irony the bewilderment and frailty of the last native Tasmanians, as they come face to face with the clumsy but inexorable power of their white destroyers.
A novel of real power and stature. - Adelaide Advertiser
In Dr Wooreddy, Mudrooroo has taken his previous themes of (Aboriginal) heritage and identity and melded them into one perception. This is an amazing book. - Newcastle Herald
Powerfully imaginative, unflinchingly honest, rich in imagery and alive with comic ironies. - Australian Book Review
Outstanding. - Boston Herald
