Moira Burke on Losing It

Thursday 8 June, 6.30pm
Readings St Kilda

Moira Burke’s Losing It, first published in 1998, is a vivid and visceral account of 1980s working-class Melbourne. This coming-of-age story is a heartbreaking portrait of an intelligent young woman desperately looking for a way to make sense of her life, grappling with her feelings of repulsion and love for her alcoholic father, and her longing to be loved.
