If you are studying either one of the following prescribed texts:

'Away' - by Michael Gow
'Immigrant Chronicle' - by Peter Skrzynecki

Read this article to see the composers put themselves in our shoes, kind of :):

Are you sweating already? Well, how would the writers themselves have answered the question? ...
All right, Peter, you rat for doing this to our children ...

Haha, that was an interesting read.

But the difference between Skrzynecki (whose poems I studied) and Gow, is that Gow appears to have a personality and can see how much torture he's putting HSC students through, haha. He also seems to have a sense of humour, whereas Skrzynecki appears to be very bland and dull.

Oh, and my brother did work experience with Richard Glover (the interviewer). :uhhuh:
