"I went like a fugitive among my father's papers, finding the maps and journals which were used on that first trip he made through the Tanami. Among them I found a scrap of paper on which he had drawn an early map of the station . . . Holding the fragment of paper in my hand, I could feel myself disappear into a wilderness of spinifex and claypans and mulga. My father's voice reached out and took hold of me as it had always done. The place and its story seemed to blot out my life, as if nothing had happened to me before or since. And the irony of it was that so little of it was my story."

Kim Mahood takes us on a lyrical journey to her heartland - travelling with her beloved cattle dog back into the Outback of her youth, seeking to lay to rest her father's ghost but finding herself faced with many of her own.

Mahood offers an intense and sensitive exploration of identity, familial ties and black/white relations in Australia. 'Craft For A Dry Lake' is a memoir that will touch the hearts and souls of every Australian.
