<p><em>Inland Sea</em> is a work which addresses close up the intricate wonder the fragility and adaptation of the unique Australian environment. It speaks to the enduring strength of&nbsp;our Aboriginal culture and of the&nbsp;people bound to protect 'Country' against the continuing threats of colonial exploitation.&nbsp;</p><p>'There is a lyrical and quiet formality to Brenda Saunders that is self-assured and celebratory of First Nations pride. This is poetry as stillness as a grassy ring holding the world in place. But it also has the power to blow raw dust into a heaving sky. This is poetry as first music singing an ancient land singing irreplaceable joy!' - Phillip Hall&nbsp;</p>
