Melbourne Writers Festival: In Conversation with Kate Grenville
Event description
The Vision Australia Library are proud sponsors of this year’s Melbourne Writers Festival. We are honoured to host award-winning author Kate Grenville, as she discusses her latest novel Unsettled: A Journey Through Time and Place.
Join Kate as she discusses Unsettled, a deeply personal memoir of family legacies, truth-telling and reckoning with what it means to be on land that was taken from other people. Intertwining her family’s history with the broader story of First Nations peoples’ dispossession and displacement, Kate considers what it means to be descended from people who were ‘on the sharp edge of the moving blade that was colonisation’.
Kate will be In Conversation with Daniel James, a Yorta Yorta Melbourne based writer and broadcaster. We encourage our guests to arrive from 5.30pm, to ensure you are comfortably seated for a prompt 6pm start.
