Please note: This is now an online event.

Join us for an incredible evening with Brodie Lancaster in conversation with Bridie Jabour.

We are thrilled to be able to offer you a witty, insightful and oddly optimistic book for a lost generation from Bridie Jabour, opinion editor at The Guardian Australia.

In the last days of 2019, journalist Bridie Jabour wrote a piece for The Guardian entitled ‘The millennials at 31: welcome to the age of misery’. The article went viral overnight and the response from readers was overwhelming. Thousands of millennials were looking at their lives and were overwhelmed with anxiety-inducing questions like, ‘Have I chosen the right place to live? The right job? Am I with the right partner? Have I made the right decision about children? Am I achieving enough?‘

Forthright, funny, incisive and provocative, Trivial Grievances is truly a book for our times, and for every twenty- or thirty-something anxious about their place in the world. Join us for a reckoning.
