ozasia festival

I’m pleased to be heading to the OzAsia Festival in Adelaide in October. These are my sessions.

Growing up Asian in Australia

Ten years on from Alice Pung’s collection on the experiences of Asian Australians, what’s changed?

In partnership with National Young Writers’ Festival, the founders of a bold new literary magazine Pencilled In continue the conversation with contiguous sessions in Newcastle and Adelaide.

Panellists: Yen-Rong Wong, Rachel Ang, with special guest Julie Koh

Sunday, 8 October 2017, 2.30pm–3.15pm, Open State Hub

Reimagining

Fiction takes a world you know and makes it new. Traversing the complexities of modern life, three powerhouses of contemporary fiction discuss comfort, disturbance and absurdity in reimagining.

Panellists: Hao Jingfang (Folding Beijing), Dorothy Tse (Snow and Shadow), Julie Koh (Portable Curiosities)

Sunday, 8 October 2017, 4.30pm–6pm, Open State Hub
