Ivan Antulich was born in Croatia in 1935, just as Europe was about to plunge into a catastrophic war. He survived, but at a cost that would scar him for the rest of his life. Like many others, he sought peace and prosperity for himself and his family by migrating, but also like many others he found his adopted home, Australia, as much a place of disappointment as a sanctuary. He returned home to Croatia only to find that the place he remembered had changed in his absence and left him behind.
