:S You're going to have to be more specific that that...

In a nutshell, the story looks at Sally trying to unearth family skeletons --> "emotional and spiritual pilgrimage". In fact, the best summary is probably the ... grr, forgotten the fancy word. It's not a prologue, but something tacked onto the very beginning of the story. It's a bit like a poem. Argh, now you can really tell how far I've "moved on" since my HSC...

In terms of Inner Journey, obviously there's an age gap that is shown in choice of language used, but there's so much more. "Place" could be seen as a metaphor for identity, sense of self, cultural heritage, sense of belonging...

Surely people can make their notes, or dare I say, ask their teacher?

My Place is a great book, but here are some tips if you need it to get started

- “What had begun as a tentative search for knowledge had grown into a spiritual and emotional pilgrimage.” The use of contrast here between the trivial and the significant implies to the reader the extent of development that Sally experienced throughout the course of her journey both in mind and spirit.
- “To think that I nearly missed all this. All my life I’d only ever been half a person.” The use of emotive and direct words maintains a sense of relief and fulfilment. The effects of this are that the reader can ultimately understand the significance of Sally’s inner journey and the importance of finally finding a sense of place.
- “It was one more precious thing that added to our sense of belonging.” Sally after learning which group she belongs to in the North. The use of “our” includes the reader. Morgan signals throughout the autobiography that she recognises the reader’s presence in her journey. Morgan also suggests that she does not feel her journey is complete, as more “precious things” are required to complete her sense of belonging.

The Aboriginal people are resiliant and will not be extinguished by the attitudes and actions of the Dominant White Society, as represented in the folllowing quote:

'The older boys went over there regularly to milk the cows. We used to follow them. We'd lack back on the bales of straw in the milking shed and beg the boys to squirt us with milk. I had my mouth open all the time, it was lovely, feeling that warm, creamy milk shoot in and down your throat.'

check your library for study guides, there were about 3 that i found. also look for infocus articles and check the internet. if all that fails you'll just have to come up with your own notes, but theres quite a bit out there if you look hard enough
