Description:
Melbourne University Press, 2001. Softcover. FINE. Emigration is often perceived as a one-way journey -- leaving one's homeland and arriving in, and adjusting to, a new country. In fact, it can be a much more complex and long-drawn-out process than this. The small village of San Fior lies in northeastern Italy. Between 1900 and 1997, more than 200 of its residents emigrated to Perth, forming a closely linked Italian-Australian community. Many of them, and their Australian-born children and grandchildren, have since made visits home."" This book explores the effect of these visits Elizabeth's Bookshops have been one of Australia's premier independent book dealers since 1973.
