Listen to unexpected stories that emerge
cultures clash and the mix of identities that make up a life. Elaine Kennedy’s, Waiting for a Wide Horse Sky, details the plight of migrant factory workers in South Korea and Tanveer Ahmed’s, Exotic Rissole, is an irreverent and very honest memoir of growing up with too much turmeric and complexities of an
immigrant Bangladeshi family in Sydney.
