Translating Lives - Living with Two Languages and Cultures

Product Description

Although Ausralia prides itself on being multicultural, many Australian have little awareness of what it means to live in two cultures at once, and of how much there is to learn about other cultural perspectives.
Translating Lives is an immensely moving collection of personal stories tracing the experiences of twelve people living in Australia who speak more than one language. Contributors including Kim Scott and Eva Sallis show how their experiences of language colour the way they relate to people and the way they see the world.
