Please note: This is an online event.

Join us online for an intimate event with one of Australia’s most beloved authors, Kate Grenville. Set in 1788, A Room Made of Leaves is the new novel from Grenville and a highly imaginative retelling of the life of Elizabeth Macarthur. Inspired by the idea of Macarthur writing a secret memoir, Grenville has crafted a playful work that dances between the real and the invented. She will discuss the novel with fellow author Melanie Cheng.

This is an online event and free to attend. Please book here, and you will be sent a unique Zoom link.
