Adelaide Writers' Week 2016

Adelaide Writers’ Week is a gathering under the trees to welcome some of contemporary literature’s most exciting writers and thinkers.

The 2016 program is a rich mix of fiction, fantasy, history, memoir, poetry, politics and political unease. The stories  include journeys into post-apocalyptic futures, across the Pacific, into hotels and living rooms, outback landscapes and well into the past.

Next year, the idea of memory makes its way through many of these stories, and it seems fitting that we consider one of the most fascinating issues of our time in a place of remembrance at our long-time home, the Pioneer Women’s Memorial Garden.

Some of the events announced include:

Mary Norris
Kid's Weekend
