About The Author
Effy Alexakis
In an Australia we still remember, in each suburb and every country town, was the Greek café or milk bar - open all hours, 7 days a week. Remember The Niagara, The Parthenon, The California, The Astoria and Paragon? As the good old days faded away, Effy Alexakis and Leonard Janiszewski took their camera, tape recorder and pen into this vanishing world. They captured the faces and stories, the style and the ethos that gave our popular culture one of its most memorable expressions.
