Elliot Perlman, the Australian writer and barrister, and author of the acclaimed Seven Types of Ambiguity and Three Dollars will read from and discuss his new work.
The Reason I Won’t Be Coming is Perlman’s new collection of smart and thoughtful short stories. They explore the complex worlds of lovers, poets, lawyers, immigrants, students and murderers. Witty, vulnerable and honest, they display the same preoccupations that made Perlman’s novel, Seven Types of Ambiguity, one of the most notable publications of 2004.
