Synopsis · may contain spoilers
This trilingual book by the distinguished poet and prose writer Antigone Kefala celebrates the true spirit of multiculturalism in Australia. The translations are into French by Marie Gaulis and into Greek by Helen Nickas. Helen Nickas also provides an extensive introduction on the author, her work and the intricacies of translation. The Island is about many things that reflect the human condition - exile, displacement, otherness, first love and its intricacies. But it is language with its complex intercultural workings that is emphasised by this trilingual publication.
