CHRISTOS TSIOLKAS IN CONVERSATION WITH KATE EVANS

  • The Old Stables @ Lot101 853 Megalong Valley Rd Megalong Valley Australia (map)

One of our most beloved writers, Christos Tsiolkas is the author of eight novels. His work has been published in over 20 languages, and many of his novels and stories adapted for the stage and screen. Warm, witty and endlessly curious, don’t miss this exclusive opportunity to listen to Christos discuss his extensive career, with ABC Radio National’s Kate Evans.

Christos Tsiolkas is the author of eight novels, Loaded, The Jesus Man, Dead Europe, The Slap, Barracuda, Damascus, 7 1/2, and The In-Between, as well as the short story collection, Merciless Gods. He has written a monograph on Patrick White for the Writers on Writers book series, as well as a monograph on Fred Schepisi’s The DevilPlayground for The Australian Screen Classic Series. In 2022, he and Alana Valentine wrote the libretto for the oratorio, Watershed: The Death of Dr Duncan. Christos is a patron of Writers Victoria and a past winner of the Melbourne Prize for Literature. 

Kate Evans is the co-host (with Cassie McCullagh) of The Bookshelf on ABC Radio National. She regularly hosts interviews at writers' festivals. She has a PhD in history and too many books, and regrets neither.
