AWW23 Middle Grade & Ya Day: Love on the Margins - Randa Abdel-Fattah & Sarah Ayoub
24 Mar 2023
Chair: Clare Sawyer Romance is a popular genre in Australian YA fiction, reflecting the age that the characters first begin to express their love and sexuality. There are added layers of complexity for characters from non-Western cultures, as they balance the usual growing pains of adolescence and young romance with a sense of being different from the dominant culture. Join authors Sarah Ayoub and Randa Abdel-Fattah as they discuss realistic characters, romantic tropes, feelings of being ’Other’ and the importance of self-love. Event details: Sun 05 Mar, 11:00am in the Torrens Tent
