Join Lucy Treloar, one of Australia's most esteemed writers, as she discusses her latest novel, "Days of Innocence and Wonder." This gripping story follows Till, a young woman in her early twenties, haunted by the abduction of a childhood friend. As Till senses danger resurfacing, she flees to the struggling country town of Wirowie, seeking a fresh start. Treloar's narrative explores themes of escape, confrontation, and the persistent nature of past trauma.
Lucy Treloar, a Melbourne-based author born in Malaysia and educated across England, Sweden, and Melbourne, has garnered significant acclaim for her previous works.

This event offers a unique opportunity to hear from a master storyteller and gain insights into her creative process.
