Migrantik is a love story set in the dark Age of Third World Fascism, as told through the lens of economic, emotional, and occasionally actual violence. At home, professional stoner and web designer Tony De Guzman feels like a tourist, surrounded by a family and people that worships an undead, shit-talking, mostly incoherent second-coming of the late dictator Philippine Ferdinand Marcos. As an immigrant worker in Australia, Tony is forced to come to terms with the realities of the Philippine drug war and his daughter's adolescence through a computer screen, while thousands of miles from his family. Caught between a crack rock and a hard place, Tony is a stranger that's stranger than most, estranged from his daughter, unwanted by his host. So hide yo wife and definitely hide yo hoes. Fighting out of the bloody streets of Metro Manila, Tony's boutta get all up in the Sydney coast! Time!

Qian Xiaohong is born into a sleepy Hunan village, where the new China rush towards development is a mere distant rumour. A buxom, naïve sixteen-year-old, she yearns to leave behind hometown scandal, and joins the mass migration to the bustling boomtown of Shenzhen. There, she must navigate dangerous encounters with ruthless bosses, jealous wives, sympathetic hookers and corrupt policemen as she tries to find her place in the ever-evolving society. Hardship and tragedy are in no short supply as her journey takes her through a grinding succession of dead end jobs. To help her through this confusing maze, Xiaohong finds solace in the close ties she makes with the other migrant girls – the community of her fellow 'northern girls' – who quickly learn to rely on each other for humour and the enjoyment of life's simple pleasures. A beautiful coming-of-age novel, Northern Girls explores the inner lives of a generation of young, rural Chinese women who embark on life-changing journeys in search of something better.
