dog-ear-cafe-front-cover If you want a hopeful story about Aboriginal Australia, this is it. Listen to an interview on Life Matters with Andrew Stojanovski, author of the remarkable ‘Dog Ear Cafe’ (Hybrid Publishers), now in its second printing.

Andrew was based at Yuendemu, 300 km north-west of Alice Springs for 11 years.

He was instrumental in establishing a highly successful and much lauded program to combat petrol-sniffing at Mt Theo, an outstation.
