Ask No Questions (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781922571342)

In her memoir, Ask No Questions, Eva Collins charts her family's journey from Poland to Australia during the Cold War. Her restrained tone reflects the threat her parents experienced of the Communist regime and of ubiquitous anti-Semitism. Simply written and deeply moving she captures loss and gain, grief and celebration with great poignancy. With a third of Australians born overseas and half the population with one migrant parent, Ask No Questions forms a crucial part of our national experience. Its accessible poetry is particularly suited for young adult readers.
