Comedy legend Judith Lucy brings her hilarious, irreverent and deeply relatable take on our increasingly complicated obsession with wellness to Queenscliffe Literary Festival.
After burnout left Judith Lucy feeling ‘like a used nappy’, she embarked on a never-ending quest to feel better... with varying degrees of success.
From wellness fads and questionable remedies to the eternal promise of a healthier, happier, more balanced self, Lucy turns her sharp wit and unflinching honesty onto the billion-dollar business of feeling ‘good’.
For Queenscliffe Literary Festival and in conversation with Elizabeth McCarthy, Lucy shares the stories, misadventures and hard-won insights behind her riotous new book, Well, Well, Well, in which she asks: in our relentless pursuit of well-being, are we actually making ourselves feel worse?
