Eggshell Skull

This expressive memoir details Bri Lee’s journey through the Australian legal system, first as the daughter of a policeman, then as a law student, and finally as a judge’s associate in both metropolitan and regional Queensland – where justice can look very different, particularly for women.

The discrimination Lee experienced every day finally impelled her to confront her own personal history, summon the courage to tell her story, and speak the truth from the other side of the courtroom. Eggshell Skull is a haunting appraisal of modern Australia from a new and essential voice.
