Book of the Year Winners at Melbourne Writers Festival

Our Rotary Melbourne Arts Committee invites Club members and guests to attend an event at the 2022 Melbourne Writers Festival – it’s a free event discussion with the winners of ‘The Age’ 2022 Book of the Year awards which will be announced at the festival opening night.

Last year, the Age Book of the Year Awards was resurrected after a nine-year hiatus. This year, it’s back and with not one, but two accolades to bestow: best fiction and nonfiction. With a host of celebrated previous recipients, including Tim Winton, Sonya Hartnett, David Malouf and most recently Robbie Arnott, you can expect great things – and an unforgettable conversation – from the 2022 forthcoming winners. Hear them live in conversation with Jason Steger, Books Editor of The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald.
