Book group: Matters of the Heart by Jacintha Price

Jacinta Price is not a victim. She was due to give birth the night she attended her high school formal. With her baby tucked in her arms, she completed year 12 from her hospital bed.

This book is a deeply personal reflection of how a young Indigenous woman became one of the most powerful political voices of our time. She is not a victim. She is an agent of her own life. And perhaps a future Prime Minister of Australia.
