Stephen Alomes, an adjunct professor at RMIT University Melbourne, has written several non-fiction books, as a cultural historian of people, nation and popular culture, and is an expressionist painter in the German and Australian traditions. In his prose poetry, in words and images, he captures our experiences of everyday life and the narcissistic excesses of social media in our visual era.'Through his art and poetry, Stephen Alomes imaginatively transforms life's little ironies, in an endeavour to make sense of it all - or not. He converts everyday activities into artworks whilst wryly observing the intricate social and cultural changes of the twenty-first century.' - Elaine Lewis, author of Left Bank Waltz (2006), poetry translator and Franco-Anglais Poetry Festival (Paris) coordinator'Witty, ironic and thought-provoking, Selective Ironies shares wisdom as it entertains.' - Libor Mikeska, novelist, musician and scholar, Heidelberg, Germany. …

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - For thousands of young Australians the tearful dockside farewell was a rite of passage as they boarded ships bound for London. For some the journey was an extended holiday, but for many actors, painters, musicians, writers and journalists, leaving Australia seemed to be the only path to personal and professional fulfilment. This book, first published in 2000, is a collective biography of those people who found themselves categorised as expatriates - people such as Leo McKern, Dame Joan Sutherland, Barry Tuckwell, Don Banks, Phillip Knightley, John Pilger, Peter Porter, Richard Neville, Jill Neville and 'megastars' Barry Humphries, Germaine Greer and Clive James. The book tells of choices they made about career and country, yet it is also a cultural history that traces shifts in the complex relationship between Australia and Britain, as the supposed colonial backwater began to develop its own cultural identity.…
