WHEN LONDON CALLS: The Expatriation of Australian Creative Artists to Britain by Alomes, Stephen
First Edition
Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1999 xiv, 320 pp. Notes, select bibliography, index. For many actors, painters, musicians and writers, leaving Australia seemed to be the only path to personal and professional fulfillment. Drawing on the lives of people such as Dame Joan Sutherland, Jill Neville, Barry Humphries, Germaine Greer and Clive James, this book explores the experience of being an expatriate in London in the creative and performing arts. It is also a cultural history that traces shifts in the relationship between Australia and Britain, as the supposed colonial backwater began to develop its own national identity. CONDITION: Minor handling only; virtually as new.. First Edition. Hardcover. Like New/Like New. 16 x 24 cm.
