AWW22 The Airways - Jennifer Mills
Chaired by Sophie Cunningham.
\nJennifer Mills follows up her Miles Franklin-shortlisted Dyschronia with the arresting The Airways, a story of memory, reality and the banality of violence. Set between contemporary Sydney and a hyper-real Beijing, The Airways is a hugely original ghost story, a powerful examination of the relationship between the body and the self, violence and the violated, marked by the sensory immersive prose that has become the hallmark of one of Australia\u2019s most interesting and ambitious authors.
