Across 2010 we’ll present a series of very special nights with celebrated journalist, broadcaster and writer Jennifer Byrne, one of the country’s foremost interviewers and host of the ‘First Tuesday Book Club’.
Jennifer’s first event will be with Helen Garner, one of Australia’s finest writers.
Her 1977 debut Monkey Grip is a modern classic.
In 2008, after 15 years of acclaimed non-fiction including The First Stone and Joe Cinque’s Consolation, she returned to fiction with the award-winning The Spare Room.
