Archival Episode: Non-Fiction Books from Melbourne Writer's Festival 2021

We're back from our hiatus! This is an archival episode, originally intended for release in December 2021, so take a small step back in time with us as we discuss some of the non-fiction books from the Melbourne Writer's Festival of September 2021. Please note that some of these books contain some pretty heavy content (domestic violence and abuse, sexual violence, hate crimes), so you may want to skip between 19:32 - 35:37 to avoid some of these.

We'll be back soon with some fresh reads to recommend!
