Back to All Events
Join Yann Martel, the Man Booker Prize-winning author of beloved classic Life of Pi, as he shares his luminous new novel of love, grief and classical mythology.
Son of Nobody tells the story of Harlow Donne, a classicist, whose research unearths an undiscovered account of the Trojan War written from the point of view of an ordinary soldier. Pairing the text of the epic poem itself with Donne’s contemporary commentary, Martel unspools a powerful meditation on life, death and the resonances of the past.
Appearing in Australia for the first time in a decade, don’t miss this opportunity to see Martel live in conversation with ABC Radio National’s Sarah L’Estrange.
