'This is the second volume of Dreaming Inside, which builds on the encouraging feedback received for the first anthology in 2013. It presents new writings from inmates at the Junee Correctional Centre and their tutors... They are part of the Black Wallaby Writers group at the South Coast Writers Centre, which develops and hosts reading and writing workshops for Indigenous inmates and secondary students. This anthology aims to bring Indigenous voices from the inside, hoping to inspire writing on the outside.' (Source: Back cover)
