The Green Room | Cath Kenneally in Conversation

Cath Kenneally’s The Green Room is a collection of beautiful and energized poems that takes stock of where we stand, in planetary terms, as caretakers of the seas, lakes and rivers of the world. These are poems about water, immersion, the Blue Planet. They plumb the depths, as it were, of our integral human connection with ocean and water.

Cath Kenneally is an award-winning poet, novelist, broadcaster, reviewer and arts writer. The Green Room is her eighth collection of poetry. She lives in Adelaide and spends part of each year in Tasmania. She co-hosts the podcast Tsundoku ‘for addicted readers’.

Cath will be introduced by Cassandra Pybus. Cassandra is an award-winning author and a distinguished historian. She is author of twelve books and has held research professorships at the University of Sydney, Georgetown University in Washington DC, the University of Texas and King's College London. She is descended from the colonist who received the largest free land grant on Truganini's traditional country of Bruny Island.
