Reseñas editoriales

Arthur Upfield's The Bone is Pointed follows Inspector Bonaparte who solves mysteries in the Australian outback. Published in the 1940's, this story not only offers up a good mystery but also a portrait of the aborigines and Australia in the early 20th century. Peter Hoskig tackles this story with verve. He speaks with a clear Australian accent while developing the characters believably, giving each his own attributes. Meanwhile, his varied pacing makes the story easy to follow. Mystery lovers and history buffs alike will have fun with the Inspector Bonaparte Mysteries.

I've enjoyed this series immensely, both story and narration. The Bone is Pointed is, by far, my favorite so far. It delves deeply into Aboriginal culture, and also touches on racial prejudice and its consequences. Much earlier 20th century fiction unabashedly reflects the attitudes of the time towards women and people of color, and it can be jarring and unpleasant to read today. This book acknowledges the immorality of that contemporary racial prejudice and its devastating effects on the Aboriginal population, much as Dorothy L Sayers does with misogyny in some of the Lord Peter Wimsey stories.

As an aside of interest, Barcoo disease is caused by cyanobacterial poisoning (blue-green algae in water) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1454012/

I really enjoyed this novel. Set in the early 20th century in Australia, it gives us a glimpse into a different society and a different culture. It gives us an insight into an amazing people, the Australian Aborigine, who like indigenous peoples all over the globe, their mental and spiritual gifts have been lost in the whirlpool of European culture.

A social and cultural pericope of a time past

I discovered the Boney series about 10 years ago. I am glad that Audible has made them available. This is one of the better reads of the series, an early book in the series and one that gives a good introduction to Detective Bonaparte and Austrailia in the 1930s.

A fine Boney Novel
