AWW22 The Airways - Jennifer Mills

Chaired by Sophie Cunningham.


Jennifer Mills follows up her Miles Franklin-shortlisted
Dyschronia with the arresting The Airways, a story of memory,
reality and the banality of violence. Set between contemporary
Sydney and a hyper-real Beijing, The Airways is a hugely original
ghost story, a powerful examination of the relationship between
the body and the self, violence and the violated, marked by the
sensory immersive prose that has become the hallmark of one of
Australia’s most interesting and ambitious authors.
