Wednesday 30 April, 6pm, at The Book Bird in Geelong West. Purchase your tickets here.
Attendees will also enjoy 10% off all purchases made on the night.
Southsightedness, Gregory Day (poetry)
“In this deeply intimate and strikingly beautiful collection, twice-shortlisted Miles Franklin Award author Gregory Day celebrates the ongoing wonders of the earth and sea while calling time on the superficial divisions we have created between ideas of nature and culture.”
Human/Nature, Jane Rawson (memoir/essays)
“This lyrical work of creative nonfiction explores how and why we think about the natural world the way we do. If you’ve ever asked yourself whether humans are ruining nature, whether there’s a better way for us to belong, or whether it’s possible to love both the environment and your cat, you’re not alone. This exquisite, contemplative book is for anyone who has ever wondered where they fit in the natural world.”
