The Next Big Thing: Echoes
The Wheeler Centre
In our very first edition of The Next Big Thing for 2024, four compelling writers look to the echo to explore the ideas, feelings and sentiments that resonate with us. James Colley tackles Australia’s obsession with ‘Big Things’ in his aptly titled The Next Big Thing; Abbey Lay’s Lead Us Not explores the emotions, expectations and blurriness of female friendship; Roslyn Orlando’s book Ekhō considers the phenonmenon of the ‘echo’ in society and across history; and Ernest Price’s debut novel The Pyramid of Needs examines complex dynamics embedded in families and whether they can change. Join us at The Moat to celebrate these exciting emerging voices in Australia’s literary landscape.
