Welcome to a conversation about the transformational powers of writing. Kathryn Heyman (Australian author of Fury; and longlister for the Orange Prize.) and Barbara Else (Laughing at the Dark) join Mia Gaudin to talk about writing their memoirs, how they mapped experience and wrote both themselves and their readers into a life changing journey. ‘I laughed and laughed, and I cried and cried. It’s got everything in it except a murder.’ — Lesley Graham, soprano (and totally unbiased sister) on Laughing at the Dark
‘A masterful work, a personal and literary triumph … searing, thrilling and redemptive … This book is a demonstration of how courage and fury and words can save you. They can make you the heroine of your own story.’ — Anna Funder, Miles Franklin Prize-winning author on Fury.
