[YoUcHeF]

Would anyone please help me, to find a related text for Peter Skrzynecki's poems, 'post card', 'st patrick's college', or '10 mary street'? I have already found the book 'Matilda' by Rohl Dahl but i don't think its good engouh please!

I'm going to be using Paul Keating's "Redfern Speech". It's all about racial equality and belonging to a race of people.
It parallels Skrzynecki's feelings of exile in immigrant chronicles. You could also look at it as Paul Keating bringing Australia
together by obliterating racial segregation, and Skrzynecki feeling connected to his country via his parents.

Could somebody please suggest a good related text for Skrzynecki's poetry? (I do advanced) I have looked all over the internet and the ones we did in class are really weak. I would prefer a short story, or article, etc.
Please reply
