Sinopsis:

Nino Culotta arrived in Australia fresh off the boat - he came to Sydney as an Italian journalist on behalf of an Italian publishing house, to tell the readers at home all about life Down Under and what it''s like to emigrate.This is a hilarious snapshot of the immigrant experience in Menzies-era Australia, by a writer with a brilliant ear for the Australian way with words. This would become the start of a series of popular novels following the adventures of Nino Culotta.

Acerca del autor:

Nino Culotta (real name John O&;Grady) was born in Waverley on 9 October 1907.

John was educated at home by his father along with several of his seven brothers and sisters. When he was twelve, John went to the Catholic school in Tamworth and later to St Stanislaus&; College, Bathurst. He hoped to become a doctor but there was no money and he graduated from Sydney University as a pharmacist, a profession he never much liked.

John O&;Grady was married three times, and had four children. He wrote for most of his adult life, but did not publish a book until he dreamed up They&;re a Weird Mob to win a bet. He was fifty when it came out. It remains one of the most successful titles in Australian publishing history. O&;Grady abandoned pharmacy and went on to write fifteen more books. In 1959 he published his famous comic poem The Integrated Adjective&;, better known as Tumba Bloody Rumba&; in the Bulletin. He died in Sydney in 1981.

Jacinta Tynan is an author, columnist and news presenter on Sky News. Her first book, Good Man Hunting, a memoir about looking for love, earned her the accolade 'Australia's answer to Carrie Bradshaw'. Her second book, Some Girls Do: My Life as a Teenager, is an anthology of female authors writing the true story of their adolescence.
