ANDREW O'HAGAN

Andrew O'Hagan returns to Sydney to share an insight into Marilyn Monroe’s life like no other.

Where: City Recital Hall, 2-12 Angel Place, Sydney.


ANNIE PROULX

Pulitzer-Prize-winning author of The Shipping News and Brokeback Mountain, Annie Proulx comes to Sydney on the publication of Bird Cloud, her first work of non-fiction in 20 years. Join us for this special event as this writer with extraordinary powers of observation and compassion turns her lens on herself.

When: 10 March 2011, 8.30-9.30pm.

Where: City Recital Hall, 2-12 Angel Place, Sydney.
