Event Description
Vision Australia Library is a proud supporter of this year’s Melbourne Writers Festival. We are honoured to host Bri Lee, as she discusses her latest novel, ‘Seed’.
‘Seed’ is a “propulsive, hilarious novel about new beginnings at the end of the world”. Critics describe ‘Seed’ as “thrilling, original and almost unbearably suspenseful…offering an uneasy glimpse into isolation, love and our worst fears”.
Bri will be In Conversation with the inimitable Jacinta Parsons. Jacinta is a broadcaster, radio maker, writer and public speaker. She has been hosting live events for more than 15 years, including The Friday Revue on ABC Melbourne.
