Thomas Keneally’s non-fiction output includes fifteen books published between 1975 and 2021. His subjects range from biblical figures (Moses The Lawgiver) to Australian politics (Our Republic) to the Irish diaspora (The Great Shame) to his own life story (Homebush Boy, Searching for Schindler).
The Great Shame (1997), about Irish political prisoners transported to Australia, is considered one of his strongest non-fiction works. Searching for Schindler (2007) tells the story behind his most famous novel, describing how he met a survivor of Schindler’s factory and decided to write the book that would win the Booker Prize.
