Bruce Pascoe Returns With New Book on Colonialism and Capitalism After Dark Emu Debate

Australian author Bruce Pascoe is preparing to release a new book on colonialism and capitalism, potentially bringing him back into the centre of cultural debate.

The forthcoming work follows years of controversy surrounding his 2014 book Dark Emu, which sparked a storm of discussion.

With the new book, Pascoe is turning to themes that could renew attention to his writing and the arguments it generates. Whether it prompts a debate comparable to that surrounding Dark Emu remains to be seen.

The announcement offers few details about the forthcoming publication. Its title and release date have not been provided, nor has a fuller account of its arguments.
