Deborah Hope is the great-great-great-great-great-granddaughter of Samuel Marsden. It was with some trepidation therefore that she plunged into Roger McDonald's The Ballad of Desmond Kale with the character of parson magistrate, Matthew Stanton, 'unquestionably based' on Marsden.

Hope concludes that works like The Ballad of Desmond Kale and Andrew McGahan's The White Earth enable her to broaden the way she thinks about her story.
