Omar Musa takes the stage at Mountain Writers Festival to discuss his award-winning novel, Fierceland.
Winner of the 2026 Miles Franklin Literary Award and the Victorian Premier’s Literary Award for Fiction, Omar Musa’s Fierceland is a trailblazing journey across continents and generations, weaving past and present into a powerful family saga of redemption, power and survival.
For Mountain Writers Festival in Macedon, Musa will explore the extraordinary scope of his work, its interrogation of inherited histories and the possibilities of storytelling when the legacy of corruption and colonialism condition one’s life.
