Berlin, New Years Eve. A young architect abandons the apocalyptic heat of a Melbourne summer for the streets his grandfather once walked. Barely off the train, a blind woman invites him to play a game. The Spiel, David’s debut novel, has begun.

David Sornig has taught at Deakin and Victoria Universities and was the 2008/09 Charles Pick Fellow at the University of East Anglia. He now lectures in creative writing at Flinders University.

Michael Meehan will launch the novel. Michael has taught in universities in many countries in Europe and Asia, and is a professor and former Head of the School of Communication and Creative Arts at Deakin University.
