{"product_id":"the-bilingual-cockatoo-john-gatt-rutter-9781925000269","title":"The Bilingual Cockatoo","description":"This book is a study of biographies and autobiographies of Italian Australians. It looks at full-length life-writing texts, including accounts of the Italian Australian experience of war-time internment, success stories, narratives of trauma and grievance and life narratives as a form of ethnography. There is a variable zoom focus, ranging from a whole chapter devoted to a single text, to surveys of a dozen or more texts in each of four chapters. A final overview maps out a chronology and typology of Italian Australian life writing relating it to immigrant life writing generally. Given its topic, the book has a tightly integrated double analytical focus. On the one hand, it studies the textual strategies deployed by the writers, and, on the other hand, it explores the experiential dimensions highlighted by the texts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Gatt-Rutter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1925000265\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781925000269\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hybrid Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/24\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.52d","brand":"John Gatt-Rutter","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44522581688575,"sku":"9781925000269","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b822b415-2925-4888-9c8d-94c2cdefa7cc.jpg?v=1700158002","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-bilingual-cockatoo-john-gatt-rutter-9781925000269","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
