AWW23: Truth in Fiction - Paul Daley
Chair: Jack Latimore
\nJournalist Paul Daley has long been preoccupied by the myths of white Australia and the collective amnesia when it comes to our shameful national past. His latest novel,\xa0Jesustown, set in the mid-20th century in a remote Aboriginal community, is a study of the multi-generational effects of Australian colonial violence. He talks to Jack Latimore about why\xa0Jesustown\xa0had to be a novel and what fiction can contribute to truth.
