Memoirs in verse are not something you read every day. Skin Painting is an intimate life story, told in poetry, by a Wiradjuri woman from the Stolen Generations.
"Little four year old with bells on her slippers
tinkling through the halls of her new home
tip-toeing past his office
his hearing is acute
the door opens
she's ordered in
He locks the door
and I am alone with him -inside.
a betrayal of bells at my feet"
