The harsh realities of domestic life and parenting, desire and rage, loss, sexual politics and awkward fumblings in uncharted territories come together in what promises to be a juicy, fun and lively session. Writers Tracey Slaughter, Brannavan Gnanalingam and Murdoch Stephens explore these themes as depicted in their recent books, Devil’s Trumpet, Slow Down, You’re Here and Down from Upland. Chaired by Sue Orr.
