Overview

Join Canberra Writers Festival and author Natasha Brown for a special In Conversation event focused on her bold, new novel Universality.

Brown is one of the most exciting voices in contemporary British fiction, and will examine storytelling, media, power and the dangerous seduction of a good narrative.

Sharp, unsettling, and darkly funny, Universality probes the slippery boundaries between truth and fiction, reality and performance. Through a cast of characters expertly wielding language for power, profit, and influence, Brown exposes how cultural narratives are shaped and who gets to control them.

Natasha Brown will appear in conversation with Nicole Abadee. Book signings will be available in the Library foyer following the discussion.

This event is in partnership with Canberra Writers Festival.
