Language is not just about the written word and how it is put together. Language is also about how a people

think - their world view and the idealistic goals they live by. Nola Turner-Jensen

Glenn Loughrey - poet and priest - offers his writings as a record and reflection of a lifetime's struggle to express his spirituality and his sense of belonging in ways that respect his Aboriginal inheritance within his Christian tradition.

His writings challenge us to consider other - more ancient - ways of being spiritual in contemporary Australia - and to reflect how language itself is an essential part of this journey of understanding and reconciliation. The book reflects the author's ongoing journey into and away from traditional religion and belief - taught as the basis of our present existence - back to what is embedded within country and kin.

Reviews for birra-bina-birra yaryanbuwaliya yandu: gentle whispers from the every'when

This collection is an invitation to another way of being. It is an offering, a guide and a gift. There is reflection, beauty and truth here alongside the reminder that we are all custodians of the land. - Katharine Downey Coming from the Indigenous perspective, his observations are both refreshingly personal and universal, creating an engaging space to consider deeply important issues. - Fiona Boyes He shares not just stories and experiences but the cultural knowledge and wisdom that shapes his perception, sensibility and his very being. Highly recommended. - Prof. Michael McGartland
