Event: Critics Rejoice, an SRB panel at Parramatta's Lit!

Critics Rejoice: featuring Max Easton, Eda Gunaydin and Lucy Van on the pleasures of writing criticism

Join Sydney Review of Books critics Max Easton, Eda Gunaydin, and Lucy Van for a spirited conversation about the pleasures of writing criticism.

What are the joys and rewards of penning criticism? How does the act of critiquing change according to its object: text or music; poetry or fiction; official historical document or real-estate ad? How does criticism enhance the lives of both the critic and the greater community?

Be inspired by these three critics as they disclose what impels them to take to their keyboards – and how they preserve their enthusiasm along with their exactitude.

This is a free event, but registrations are essential.
