Books about friendship are not often described as love stories, but Chosen Family is one. Join us for a conversation about friends that both adore and destroy each other, and follow their journey from school, to university, to careers, to motherhood. Madeleine Gray was instantly confirmed as one of our most original, brilliant and hilarious writers with Green Dot and now with Chosen Family you will want to laugh, cry and soar on the ups and downs of female friendship. An exclusive event and chance to be one of the first to learn about Madeleine’s latest novel. Come join us in the historic Rose Courtyard at Hyatt Hotel Canberra with nibbles and cocktails. Madeleine will be in conversation with HerCanberra’s Erin Cross.
