Author & journalist Bri Lee joins today's show to talk about her debut novel 'The Work' which was released April 3rd. Listen to the nuanced discussion about the process of writing this book, the conversation she wants to have between author and audience, the ways that this fiction work differs from her non-fiction work, and how politics and ethics are woven into all of these aspects of her writing and life.
Eliza Hull, musician, writer and disability advocate, then joins Lit Glitt to talk about the fundraiser show 'For Palestine' that she is hosting on Dja Dja Wurrung country at the Theatre Royale in Castlemaine on April 21st. Eliza will be joined by many wonderful artists, poets and important community figures to raise money for 'We Are Not Numbers,' a not-for-profit organisation supporting writers in Palestine.
Hosted by Mel Fulton
