They're a Weird Mob
Nino Culotta is an Italian immigrant sports journalist, newly arrived in Australia. He struggles to find employment, the only opportunity being as a builder’s labourer. At first , Nino cannot comprehend the culture in this new and unfamiliar land, but eventually he finds mate-ship and even romance.
AroView: Classic, even nostalgic Aussie text of nationhood, from the bestselling (hoax) novel ‘Down Under’ by John O’Grady, in which the fair dinkum ‘lucky country’ and its true blue inhabitants are seen through the eyes of Nino Culotta, an Italian immigrant. Strewth!
