Literati Gliterati November Salon: 'Family Lexicon' by Natalia Ginzburg
The monthly Literati Glitterati Salon returns for its final instalment for 2024 to discuss autobiographical novel Family Lexicon by Natalia Ginzburg about life, language, and family in Italy from the 1920s to the 50s. Mel Fulton speaks to writer and editor Hilary McPhee, collection manager and multidisciplinary artist Marita Dyson, and writer Raeden Richardson on how Ginzburg uses words to create a family bonded by phrases and how the book explores the dysfunction and isolation of family, language, and identity with much humor and affection.

Women and Children First by Alina Grabowski & Raging Grace: Australian Writers Speak Out on Disability by Andy Jackson
Alina Grabowski dials in to talk all about her latest book, Women and Children First, set in a fictional town in Massachusetts. It’s a burnt-out coastal town where the residents are confronted by the death of a young woman at a house party, and the novel is told through the voices of women in the community as they work through their grief and try to get to the bottom of what happened. Poet Andy Jackson joins Mel to talk about his collaborative project Raging Grace: Australian Writers Speak Out on Disability. Featuring work from over 20 disabled contributors, the anthology contains poems, essays and artworks which question and divulge the experience of being deemed troublesome. And there's still time to read this month's novel, Family Lexicon by Natalia Ginzburg, for next week's Literati Glitterati Salon.
