My Family and “Them Languages”: A multilingual life Aline P'nina Tayar
This is a follow-up to my first memoir 'How Shall We Sing? A Mediterranean Journey Through a Jewish Family' (Pan Macmillan/Picador) In it, I recount the experiences of my immigrant family, who happened to be those rare creatures, Jews from Malta. Settling in Australia in the 1950s as part of the country's mass subsidized migration scheme, my parents were determined to free their son and daughter from Old World perceptions based on religion, geography and class. Instead we children ended up defining ourselves by what they were not rather than what our parents hoped we would become.

What a unique name for your book, Aline. I just clicked on the title and read the publisher's blurb. Thank you for sharing with us!
