AWW23: Nothing Bad Ever Happens Here - Heather Rose

Chair: Lenore Taylor

Award-winning novelist Heather Rose’s memoir, Nothing Bad Ever Happens Here, has a title that certainly piques the reader’s interest, but the words between the covers reveal a deeply personal, confronting story quite different to what you might expect. The book contains meditations on grief, healing, love and creativity that follow the course of the author’s life. In conversation with Lenore Taylor, Editor of The Guardian Australia, Rose traces the threads that bind her childhood griefs to her adult writing life.
