The Drovers Wife


This Story suggests that the houses that are lived in Australia are very natural in the outback, roofs are made with tin, walls are made of sticks, and the floors are made of either mud,dirt of even rocks..
Everything that surrounds you is living..Owls,wombats,bats flapping around, and dingos barking..

This story just gives us an idea of Australia is standing for and what Australia gives us as a country.

The drovers wife clearly possesses qualities that associate her with the myth of the bush. The drovers wife illustrates her resourcefulness and her ability to work hard despite her isolation.
The central character is forced to use her resources both physical and mental to survive and feed her family. This relates to our Itentity of what means to be a Lady, and the responsibilities that come with it.
