Author Talk: Nadia Wheatley

Join us at Five Dock Library for an Author Talk with Nadia Wheatley, as she talks about Charmain Clift's newly published book, The End of the Morning.

About the book

During the years of the Great Depression, Cressida Morley and her eccentric family live in a weatherboard cottage on the edge of a wild beach. Outsiders in their small working-class community, they rant and argue and read books and play music and never feel themselves to be poor. Yet as Cressida moves beyond childhood, she starts to outgrow the place that once seemed the centre of the world. As she plans her escape, the only question is: who will she become?

The End of the Morning is the final and unfinished autobiographical novel by Charmian Clift. It is published here alongside a new selection of Clift’s essays and an afterword from her biographer Nadia Wheatley.

Please register your attendance. Light refreshments will be served from 5.45pm.
