Monkey Grip, Puberty Blues and Cloudstreet are just some of the books this Grand Dame of Australian letters nurtured into being. In this insightful conversation, McPhee talks about those halcyon days, her friend the late Carmen Callil and the state of modern publishing. Event details: Mon 06 Mar, 2:30pm on the East Stage
