M.J.E. King Boyes reviews 'Karobran'

by
September 1978, no. 4

Karobran (Togetherness) by the late Monica Clare is not a great (or even a good) novel, but it is an important work and, as such, deserves to be widely read.

Largely autobiographical, it deals primarily with the Depression years and the experiences of Isabelle (Monica), her brother Morris and, following the death of their European mother in childbirth, the ultimate separation from their Aboriginal father, Dave Herbert.
