Dinner with Bonnie Garmus: Lessons in Chemistry

At this exclusive dinner event, acclaimed novelist Bonnie Garmus will be in conversation with broadcaster and Lessons in Chemistry superfan Virginia Trioli. Together, they will take audiences behind the scenes of this breakthrough novel, as they discuss how Lessons in Chemistry examines the gender pay gap, misogyny in the workplace and women’s rights. Hear from a literary great while enjoying stunning views of Melbourne’s city skyline and a delicious two-course dinner with wine, beer and soft drinks included.

Bonnie Garmus’s debut novel transports readers to 1960s California. Elizabeth Zott – single mother and brilliant chemist – unexpectedly finds herself hosting a television cooking show, and changes hearts and minds in the process. Laugh-out-loud funny, shrewdly observant, and studded with a dazzling cast of supporting characters, Lessons in Chemistry is as original and vibrant as its protagonist.

Gather your book club for this unique opportunity to hear from one of the most extraordinary literary success stories of recent years.
