Sydney Writers' Festival show

Summary: In these turbulent times, instincts and emotions seem to occupy an ever-expanding corner of our political world.

Featuring William Davies (Nervous States), Eleanor Gordon-Smith (Stop Being Reasonable) and Jeff Sparrow (Trigger Warnings) with The Guardian’s Bridie Jabour.
