Sydney Writers Festival streaming - Stan Grant - Batemans Bay Library

Join us at the Batemans Bay Library as we stream this event from the popular Sydney Writers Festival thanks to the NSW State Library.
About this Event

These days, it seems like everyone has something to say, but are we actually hearing each other?

In When Words Fail Us: Truth Beyond Time, Wiradjuri and Kamilaroi journalist and writer Stan Grant explores the fragility of language in loud and angry times. Drawing on a wide range of thinkers from Plato to Simone Weil to Radiohead, Stan considers truth, communication and understanding.

Hear Stan’s reflections in this special event, part address, part meditation.

Cost: free
