A conversation between two acclaimed writers about the experience of being caught between cultures.
Nikos Athanasou’s stories speak to all those who feel caught between two cultures. His characters are the second and third generations of Greek Australians who, having a strong sense of their Greek identity and traditions, are not always at ease in the modern Australian world.
Nikos, in conversation with fellow author Pol Koutsakis, will discuss not just cultural differences between Greeks and Australians but also the distinctive psyche of Greek Australians when they encounter issues of life, love, death and duty to one’s past.
Late Hybrids is a book that will speak not only to Greek Australians but to migrants of other nationalities who will also recognise themselves and their experiences in his stories.
