Ouyang Yu in conversation with Alice Pung

Thursday 18 April, 6.30pm
Readings Carlton

Join us to hear Ouyang Yu in conversation with Alice Pung to discuss Yu's The White Cockatoo Flowers.

The White Cockatoo Flowers is Ouyang Yu's first collection of stories in English and is both assured and tender and at times surprisingly funny. It includes stories set in China and Australia that revel in the truth and candour of lived experience and the joys and constraints of language.

Free, but bookings are essential.

Please book here.

Location
Carlton, Wurundjeri Country, 309 Lygon St, Carlton
