Robert Dessaix: As I Was Saying

This event is now complete.

Robert Dessaix has long been one of Australia’s foremost essayists. His latest collection, As I Was Saying, is a swirling conversation with the reader on everything from travel to dogs and cats, from sport and swearing to the pleasures of idleness.

A compelling public speaker, Dessaix brings his trademark eloquence to this leisurely guided tour of his chamber of curiosities.
