David Malouf has 10 past events. (show) NSW Premier’s Awards: Meet the Writers Some of the just-announced winners of the 2016 NSW Premier’s Literary Awards as they discuss what it takes to be an award-winning writer, the impact awards have on a writer’s career, and what it feels like to follow in the footsteps of previous winners such as Peter Carey, David Malouf and Helen Garner. (shawjonathan)David Malouf: Celebrating 80 Years Event location: Sydney Theatre, Walsh Bay  David Malouf David Malouf is internationally recognised as one of Australia’s finest writers – and a master of many forms, from poetry to plays, and novels to opera libretti. He has won the Commonwealth Writers Prize, the IMPAC Dublin Literary Award and been shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize. He is a magician at conjuring image, at transforming sensation into experience: perhaps this is why he works so superlatively in miniature.
His latest book, A First Place, is a collection of essays and personal writing, released to celebrate his 80th birthday. Covering geography, topography, history, multiculturalism, Brisbane and the idea of home, A First Place encapsulates the beauty and contradictions of contemporary Australia.
To celebrate David Malouf’s birthday and achievements, we’re hosting a retrospective of his poetry and short stories. Australia’s first lady of letters, Ramona Koval, will travel with David Malouf on a journey to the heart of Australian life. (rodneyvc)… (more) David Malouf - Earth Hour and A First Place Poetry Readings Event location: West Stage David Malouf Event location: East Stage An Hour with David Malouf David MaloufThere is always a beautiful calm in David Malouf’s prose, even when it involves disturbing events like the life of the lost boy, as in Remembering Babylon. Partly it is the sense of control of a master-story teller spinning a yarn. The reader awaits with anticipation the next, brilliantly executed turn of the plot. But one comes back to this sense of tone - beautifully centred, modest yet as far reaching as the curve on the horizon at sunset. Malouf established himself as one of the great Australian writers with award-winning novels and short stories. Now he is simply himself, a writer from the periphery who has become part of the central narrative of what it is to be human today. Chair: Iain Sharp.
