Join award-winning author Kate Grenville as she discusses Unsettled, a deeply personal memoir of family legacies, truth-telling and reckoning with what it means to be on land that was taken from other people.
Intertwining her family’s history with the broader story of First Nations peoples’ dispossession and displacement, Grenville considers what it means to be descended from people who were ‘on the sharp edge of the moving blade that was colonisation’.
She speaks about historical facts and historical fictions, writing challenging histories and confronting the ghosts of the past, in conversation with Rosemarie Milsom.
Please note Daniel James is no longer appearing in this event.
