ILF | PUBLISHING | Murli la - Songs and Stories of the Tiwi Islands

[Edited extract from public address]

Announcing that our newest title, Murli la - Songs and Stories of the Tiwi Islands is available to purchase through our website!

Murli la is a beautifully designed gift book that celebrates the culture of the Tiwi Islands through song. The songs presented in this book hold cultural, genealogical, geographical and spiritual knowledge that has been passed down through thousands of years of Tiwi storytelling, ceremony and in the songlines that circle the islands.

As custodians of the songs, the Ngarukuruwala Women’s Group in partnership with Dr Genevieve Campbell have recorded over 40 songs in language for the first time – each with an introduction and English translation.
