The Past is Never Past
Melbourne Rare Book Week
What do the experiences of our foremothers have to teach us? Why does digging into the past provide such fertile themes and characters for crime writing? How can the past be convincingly portrayed to modern readers? What light do historical mysteries shed on contemporary concerns as well as those of earlier eras? How can the readership for historical mysteries be expanded? Join Melbourne crime writers Lucy Sussex and A.M. Stuart as they delve into the swirl of history, murder, and intrigue with Sisters in Crime’s founder, Carmel Shute.
