The Story

Is Australia a remote chunk of the northern, western world or a part of Asia? Is it a new version of the USA with European manners ('the new California'), or a second-hand version of Europe with American ones? How does it accommodate the fate of its original human inhabitants, or propose a decent future for them? Why is its head of state still the British queen? In Australia, two universal, modern problems are vividly posed. Who are we? What shall we become?
