Listen "10: 'Ukraine' Maria falls in love with Italy, the Mother of Exiles."
Episode Synopsis
You’re listening to Immigrants and Exiles; a series of chats recorded at the Beachcomber Café in St. Kilda between me, Walter, and my friend Moreno. In part two of the episode dedicated to ‘Ukraine’ Maria – sorry, Maria, we know you’re really Russian – we reflect some more on twenty-first century Italy as a modern destination for new migrants, but also on why Italian cemeteries can be so welcoming and why Australia shouldn’t simply be accepting of newcomers but should also be acceptable to them: that’s right, acceptable to them.
Music: an extract from ‘Leningrad’ by Walter Musolino & Davide Musolino.
