MURRAY MIDDLETON: BOOK LAUNCH
Join us to celebrate the launch of Murray Middleton's No Church in the Wild. Named Readings' April Fiction Book of the Month, No Church in the Wild takes place among the Flemington commission flats, following the lives of two disgruntled kids, a teacher and a cop as they embark on a police-led trip to walk the Kokoda Trail in the hope of healing the wrongs of the past. Unshaved novelist and 2022 Age Book of the Year winner Miles Allinson will do the launching honours. Free, but bookings are essential. Please book here.
