Helen Garner, Chloe Hooper and Sarah Krasnostein
in conversation with Hannie Rayson
In QLF's special pop-up event on 22 January 2026, three of Australia’s most celebrated writers — Helen Garner, Chloe Hooper and Sarah Krasnostein — will discuss their book The Mushroom Tapes with Hannie Rayson.
The Mushroom Tapes is a true-crime book like no other — a unique study of convicted triple murderer Erin Patterson and our collective obsession with her strange and terrible crime — that's been described as 'a cultural inquisition with psychological heft' and ‘the non-fiction book of the season.’
Why not wash off the sand and sunscreen on 22 January and join these remarkable women for a fascinating conversation about the case that stopped the nation and its sinister and complex themes: love, hate, jealousy, revenge, marriage, money, mycology and murder.
Where: Queenscliff Town Hall
When: Thurs 22 January 2026, 6–7pm (QLF cashless bar open from 5.15pm)
Tickets: $45/35 concession.
