La terre rouge que le sang a bu, by Jean-François Chabas
Acclaimed author Jean-François Chabas recounts the fate of an aboriginal community deep in the Australian outback through the eyes of Minga and Bimbarlulu, a pair of aliens on a secret mission to eradicate life on Earth.
As time goes by, however, they find themselves increasingly embracing the beliefs of their local community and developing bonds with the men and women who share their daily lives. When faced
with violence, the pilling of the land, and unfair treatment at the hands of British colonialists, it becomes increasingly difficult for them not to intervene.
A powerful testimonial, The Earth Bleeds Red bears witness to the silent genocide of indigenous civilizations as communities around the globe stand wordlessly by.
