#About the event
Duration: 60 minutes
Some truths can only be glimpsed through the prism of loss, with grief exposing us to the most painful and revelatory parts of the human experience. These moving novels depict grief as a painful, productive process through which we might apprehend the darkest and most deeply felt recesses of our own natures.

Together with ARIA-winning composer, Sally Whitwell, she wrote a musical based on Unrequited: Deadpan Anti-fan.
