AWW23: If You Want a Friend, Get a Dog - Craig Silvey

Chair: Rick Morton


In an interview with The Guardian, author Craig Silvey
admitted his favourite object is a mandolin – absolutely not to
be confused with his passion for the ukulele – and expressed his
regret over the lost breakthrough memoir he wrote at the age of
10. With Rick Morton, Silvey explains a writing career that
includes a fascination with small Australian towns, the acts of
courage that inspire him and why empathy matters.
