Christos Tsiolkas is one of Australia’s most beloved and provocative novelists, and he is beloved because of his provocations.

That’s a rare form of admiration in this tall poppy chopping country.

Christos’s latest book, The In Between, is a love story; a tender tale of mid-life solace. It’s his most gentle, earnest book to date, and it may be his best.

In this special event, Christos reflects on his life on – and off – the page with friend, and fellow Melburnian, Clare Wright.
