It seems like absolutely everyone was reading Night Games in 2013. The exploration of sporting culture, toxic masculinity, rape, crime and power was the couldn't-put-down book of the year, with unexpected twists and turns and a conclusion no one saw coming.
Night Games author Anna Krien will sit down with writer Benjamin Law at this year's Melbourne Writers Festival to talk about survival, through parenting challenges and creative fallow periods. Krien and Law have been close friends for years (and what a literary power friendship that is!), so audiences can expect an evening of easy but powerful conversation.
