About the presenter: Archimede Fusillo, the son of Italian migrants, was born and grew up in Melbourne. Success with short stories about growing up in a multicultural Melbourne led Archie to try his hand at writing a novel. In 1997 his first novel, Sparring With Shadows, was a Notable Children's Book Council of Australia book and went on to be shortlisted for the Italy in the World Literature Awards. He followed this up with The Dons, Bruises and later Last of the Braves, among others.
