Description

From the 1950s to the 2020s, Look at Moi Ploise is a gift book that journeys through the most unforgettable bits of Australian pop culture with both humour and love. Beck Feiner's vibrant illustrations come to life as we cycle through the decades and look back fondly on the people, moments and creations that have helped to shape Australia's cultural identity. There's Bert Newton flashing his pearly whites, the royal wedding of the 1980s (Scott and Charlene's Neighbours nuptials, of course) and Julia Gillard's internet-breaking misogyny speech. Katie Cunningham's side-splitting reviews will spark both memories and conversations that will emphasise how we've evolved as a nation. You may be reminded of that swimming pool or duck cake at your childhood birthday party, admiring Merv Hughes' handlebar moustache flapping in the wind, posing for photos in front of the strangest of Big Things, cheering on the Matildas or finding yourself quoting lines from Kath & Kim. Whether you grew up in Perth or Parramatta, or Australia has become your home in more recent times, there's something in this book for everyone.
