AWW23: A Bedtime Story - Chloe Hooper
Chair: Beejay Silcox
Chloe Hooper’s Bedtime Story is a paean to the solace of reading in times of grief and pain. Its starting point is her partner’s leukemia diagnosis and the challenge of preparing their children for an uncertain future. In conversation with writer and critic Beejay Silcox, Hooper examines the world of children’s literature – a genre that is remarkably dark – and explores how children understand and cope with a world they can’t control.
