1 Voicing Historical Silences in Sally Morgan's My Place and Roberta Sykes' Trilogy Snake Dreaming: A Journey from the Margins to the Centre Through Two Different Paths Elena Oliete , 2006 single work criticism
— Appears in: Explorations in Australian Literature 2006; (p. 17-33)
Basing her analysis on 'theories put forward by Homi Bhabha, William E. Cross and Robert Young among others', Oliete compares Sally Morgan's My Place with Roberta Sykes's Snake Dreaming trilogy 'in order to demonstrate that these two books ... present different perspectives on the same topic: the search of a place in a post-colonial society by hybrid women who strive to get out of the Australian fringe'.
