The Good Turn - Dervla McTiernan in conversation Wednesday 18th March 2020 at 6.30pm by Dervla McTiernan

$10.00 AUD

Category: Event tickets

About the book: Police corruption, an investigation that ends in tragedy and the mystery of a little girl's silence - three unconnected events that will prove to be linked by one small town. While Detective Cormac Reilly faces enemies at work and trouble in his personal life, Garda Peter Fisher is relo cated out of Galway with the threat of prosecution hanging over his head. But even that is not as terrible as having to work for his overbearing father, the local copper for the pretty seaside town of Roundstone. For some, like Anna and her young daughter Tilly, Roundstone is a refuge from trauma. But even this village on the edge of the sea isn't far enough to escape from the shadows of evil men. ...Show more

CLARE BOWDITCH: SPEAKING FRANKLY TOUR In conversation with Meri Fatin Thursday 7th November, 6pm for 6.30pm Judith Cottier Theatre, Perth College 31 Lawley Cres, Mount Lawley This is a STUDENT TICKET to the event - Students must be 18yrs or under. This is the story I promised myself, aged twe nty-one, that I would one day be brave enough - and well enough - to write. Clare Bowditch has always had a knack for telling stories. Through her music and performing, this beloved Australian artist has touched hundreds of thousands of lives. But what of the stories she used to tell herself? That 'real life' only begins once you're thin or beautiful, that good things only happen to other people. YOUR OWN KIND OF GIRL reveals a childhood punctuated by grief, anxiety and compulsion, and tells how these forces shaped Clare's life for better and for worse. This is a heartbreaking, wise and at times playful memoir. Clare's own story told raw and as it happened. A reminder that even on the darkest of nights, victory is closer than it seems. With startling candour, Clare lays bare her truth in the hope that doing so will inspire anyone who's ever done battle with their inner critic. This is the work of a woman who has found her true power - and wants to pass it on. Happiness, we discover, is only possible when we take charge of the stories we tell ourselves. ...Show more

Clementine Ford in conversation - Boys will be Boys - Thursday 11th October at 6.30pm - BOOK & TICKET by Clementine Ford

Category: Event tickets

WHERE: Judith Cottier Theatre, Perth College, 31 Lawley Cres, MOUNT LAWLEY WHEN: Thursday 11th October at 6.30pm. Book collection from 5.30pm. Doors open 6pm. Session concludes at 7.45pm and will be followed by book signing. Clementine Ford reports that one of the questions she is most asked in person and online is ‘How do I raise my son to be a feminist? How do I make sure he’s a supporter rather than a perpetrator?’ It is a question that many parents with sons are haunted by and, now that she is mother to a baby boy, it is a question that haunts Clementine too. How does a feminist raise a son in a world that conditions boys into entitlement, privilege and power at the expense of not just girls’ humanity but also their own? All boys start out innocent but by the time they are adolescents many of them will subscribe to a view of masculinity that is openly contemptuous of women and girls. ...Show more
