Description: The White Earth by Andrew McGahan After his father’s death, young William is cast upon the charity of an unknown great-uncle, John McIvor. The old man was brought up expecting to marry the heiress to Kuran Station - a grand estate in the Australian Outback - only to be disappointed by his rejection and the selling off of the land. He has devoted his life to putting the estate back together and has moved into the once - elegant mansion. McIvor tries to imbue William with his obsession, but his hold on the land is threatened by laws entitling the Aborigines to reclaim sacred sites. William’s mother desperately wants her son to become John McIvor’s heir, but no one realizes that William is ill and his condition is worsening.
