Book Launch: FIG by Dael Allison

Come along and help celebrate the launch of local author Dael Allison's new book: Fig.
Fig trees flower within their own fruit, isn’t that the ultimate form of protection? Newcastle is a regional city where people have proven again and again that they are prepared to fight for what they need to protect. From iconic fig trees to the planet, from workers rights to protecting vulnerable children and even saving oneself, sometimes that protection takes a long time coming. And sometimes it fails. In these linked stories Dael Allison explores how being prepared to fight to protect what you believe in builds a strong, resilient, rich community.
Dael will be in conversation with her daughter Pippa about Fig, as well as regional writing more generally.
Finger food and a glass of wine will be provided.
