What: "The Human Rights activist, QC and author of Wordwatching [Julian Burnside] will speak to the author of Death Sentence and Watson's Dictionary of Weasel Words [Don Watson] about the way we use words."
Where: Readings Books, 185 Glenferrie Road, Hawthorn (just down the street from Glenferrie Station). (Do I need to point out that this is a suburb of Melbourne? Probably not.)
When: 6:30pm, Thursday, 3rd March 2005.
To whet your appetite, Julian Burnside reviewed Watson's book Death Sentence in the Dec 2003/Jan 2004 issue of "Australian Book Review". Given this is just down the street from me, and I can drop in on the way home from work, I'll attempt to get along.
A full listing of upcoming reader/writer events at all Readings bookstores in Melbourne is available.
