Product Description

You ask, 'Can the dead speak?'
I answer, 'Is this blood that runs in my veins, or ink?'
So writes Jack Ireland, a 14-year -old English-born shipwreck survivor, captured by headhunters and adopted by Torres Strait Islanders as the ghost of their own dead child. Rescued after years of captivity, his sufferings are recorded in the London Times (1836-1837) and his own remarkable autobiography (1845).
In Voicing The Dead, internationally-awarded author Gary Crew revisits the story of Jack Ireland, who lived to fight - and write - back.
