The story of a courageous Indigenous woman who beat disadvantage and violence to become one of the most influential political voices in Australia.


Jacinta Nampijinpa Price was nine months pregnant and due to give birth the night she attended her high school formal. With her baby tucked in her arms, she completed year 12 from her hospital bed.

Early in their relationship, she took her future husband, Colin, to the Alice Springs morgue to identify the body of a family member who'd been murdered.

Nothing about the life of this passionate and steely Warlpiri woman could ever be described as ordinary.

In this remarkable memoir, Jacinta Nampijinpa Price candidly recalls her journey from the remote outback communities of Yuendumu and Alice Springs in the Northern Territory - a young girl with big dreams and the red dust of her ancestors under her fingernails - to the corridors of Canberra and beyond.

Honest, raw, and at times heartbreaking, Matters of the Heart is a deeply personal reflection of how a young Indigenous woman, growing up surrounded by violence and tragedy, beat the odds to become one of the most powerful political voices of our time.

'I've been to hell and back, and I've survived.'
