pickMain thread through the story is Eliza Fraser ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eliza_Fraser ) and her experiences with Aboriginal people. Main goal of this book is to show how harmful (and dangerous) stereotypes, even ‘good‘ one, can be on the examples from literature. It‘s a pick, because it‘s a thought provoking book and the chapter about cannibalism is excellent. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
