The Ninth Life of a Diamond Miner
Grace Tame is many things: 2021’s Australian of the Year, activist, advocate, child sexual abuse survivor and now author. She’s also a person with a three-dimensional story like any other — coloured with trauma, yes, but also love, joy and connection. In her memoir, The Ninth Life of a Diamond Miner, Grace tells her story on her own terms. Prepare to laugh, cry, feel blood-boiling rage and, ultimately, recognise parts of yourself in the extraordinary woman that is Grace Tame.
