Bryan Brown has been gracing Australian screens for decades. His work spans television, film (most famously Australia, Two Hands, and Cocktail) and two books, the latest of which is The Drowning.
Set in a sleepy northern New South Wales town, Brown's first novel is full of his characteristic laconic storytelling. Humorous, tough, cinematic and suspenseful, The Drowning joins the rural crime ranks of Jane Harper and Chris Hammer. Join Bryan Brown in conversation with J.P. Pomare at the Wheeler Centre for an exclusive live Melbourne event this November.
Presented in partnership with Readings.
