We are thrilled to celebrate the new edition of one of the world’s oldest novels - Apuleius’ The Golden Ass, now edited by renowned Australian philosopher Peter Singer. Peter will be joined in conversation by much loved author and journalist Ramona Koval, whose latest book is A Letter to Layla: Travels to our deep past and near future.

The Golden Ass is a rollicking, erotic adventure story about a young man who is transformed into a donkey. Singer presents this novel as not just an entertaining story, but also an insightful example of ancient empathy for animals and their suffering.

This event is free to attend but bookings are essential as places are strictly limited.

Please book here.
