I love memoirs for hearing someone’s life as well as their perspective on the world. Like others have said, I feel like Robert’s career as a journalist makes this read more like a collection of stories rather than a memoir with a clear narrative thread. 

That being said it was pretty disappointing to hear Robert repeatedly use the coloniser name for Uluru when he wrote this in the 2010s, especially considering that as a journalist he wrote about race a lot.

Also, don’t mention Pauline Hanson unless you’re going to talk about how awful she is. Otherwise it sounds like you’re bragging about meeting her and having a signed copy of her book! Robert even shared some of her backwards beliefs without criticism which was just not it.
