Event description

Two books are released in the same year in Australia. Two gay protagonists hailing from Queensland start their journeys of sexual exploration. Yet they are set apart by 40 years.

Join us for a captivating discussion with authors J.M. Tolcher and David Owen Kelly. Discover the inspirations behind their critically acclaimed works, “Poof” and “Host City”. From exploring the complexities of identity and belonging to delving into the social and political landscapes of urban life, these authors offer unique perspectives that will leave you aroused, devastated and pondering.

The session will be moderated by Jordan Turner.
