![]() At a time when public discussion of religion is deeply polarised, this multi-award-winning book offers an innovative and surprising new perspective on religion and society. A must-listen for non-believers and believers alike, The Bible in Australia explores how in the hands of Bible-bashers, immigrants, suffragists, evangelists, unionists, writers, artists and Indigenous Australians, the Bible has played a defining and contested role in this country. In this multi-award-winning history of the Bible in Australia, Meredith Lake gets under the skin of a text that's been wrestled with, preached and tattooed and believed to be everything from a resented imposition to the very word of God. ![]() Winner of the 2019 Chass Australia Book PrizeĪustralian Christian Book of the Year in 2018 Winner of the 2019 Prime Minister's Australian History Prize ![]() Winner of the 2019 NSW Premier's History Award: Australian History Prize Winner of the Nonfiction Award 2020 Adelaide Festival Awards for Literature ![]()
