Tame, the 2021 Australian of the Year, chronicles her survival of childhood sexual abuse at the hands of a teacher, her battle against the suppression laws that once silenced her, and the extraordinary personal and political journey that followed. Written with unflinching clarity and raw emotional power, the narrative moves between the personal and the political, drawing on Tame's lived experience to illuminate the systemic failures that allow abuse to persist and survivors to be silenced.\n\nFar more than a survivor's account, this memoir argues boldly for structural change, demanding that institutions, governments, and communities confront uncomfortable truths. Tame's prose is as precise and uncompromising as her public advocacy — she writes not to seek sympathy, but to dismantle the myths that protect perpetrators and shame victims. Threaded throughout is a meditation on identity, resilience, and the cost of speaking out, making this essential reading for anyone who believes in justice, accountability, and the transformative power of one person's refusal to be silent. For readers who thought they knew Grace Tame's story, this memoir reveals just how much remained untold.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51070621745371,"sku":"2026100012124-SECONDHAND","price":60.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/641b7d8e-5404-4c71-af16-a6b19edf797e.png?v=1794188088","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100012124-secondhand-the-ninth-life-of-a-diamond-miner-a-memoir-signed","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
