Richard Flanagan: In Conversation
From the only author ever to have won both the Booker Prize and the Baillie Gifford Prize (Britain's leading prize for non-fiction) comes a dazzling collection of writing, essays, articles and speeches - Heresies.
From Manus to MONA to birds to the Black Summer, from the destruction of our natural world to the hope offered by Indigenous Australia to the growing corrosion of democracy, from Salman Rushdie to the Segal Report, family and love, Flanagan’s non-fiction writings carry the author’s trademark elegance, subversive wit, and humanity.
This showcase of Richard Flanagan’s heretical brilliance over twenty years speaks to the heart of our troubled times now and we couldn't be more thrilled to be welcoming him to the Castlemaine Town Hall to chat about this collection and his writing career with Astrid Edwards.
We hope you can join us, this will be one not to be missed.
