520 1829, Tasmania. John Batman, ruthless, single-minded; four
convicts, the youngest still only a stripling; Gould, a
downtrodden farmhand; two free black trackers; and
powerful, educated Black Bill, brought up from childhood
as a white man-this is the roving party, and their purpose
is massacre. With promises of freedom, land grants, and
money, each is willing to risk his life for the prize.
Passing over many miles of tortured country, the roving
party searches for Aborigines, taking few prisoners and
killing freely, Batman never abandoning the visceral
intensity of his hunt. And all the while, Black Bill
pursues his personal quarry, the much-feared warrior
Manalargena. A surprisingly beautiful evocation of horror
and brutality, The Roving Party is a meditation on the
intricacies of human nature at its most raw.
