Originally based in Adelaide, the journal moved to Melbourne in 1942 once Harris joined the Heide Circle, a group of modernist painters and writers who stayed at Heide, a property owned by art patrons John and Sunday Reed. Angry Penguins subsequently became associated with, and stimulated, an art movement now known by the same name.

Truganini: Journey Through the Apocalypse is a 2020 biography of Truganini by Cassandra Pybus. Truganini, a Nuenonne woman who lived between 1812–1876, has been widely and falsely mythologised as "the last full-blooded Aboriginal Tasmanian", having survived the extermination of most of Tasmania's Indigenous population in the early 19th century. Truganini survived by acting as a guide for expeditions organised by colonists to capture and exile her fellow Aboriginal Tasmanians, and was later exiled herself to Wybalenna Aboriginal Establishment and Oyster Cove. Pybus has said that the goal of her writing was to "liberate the stories" of Aboriginal people trapped in colonists' accounts, and that the myth-making surrounding Truganini as the "last of her people" had overshadowed her agency and experiences.
