I spoke to author Kirsty Murray about her award-winning YA novel, India Dark, at M Pavillion on 2 December 2016.
In our conversation, Kirsty shares the scandalous story of Pollard’s Lilliputian Opera Company, 29 Australian child performers that worked the Empire circuit from Melbourne to India in 1909, on which her novel India Dark is based.
We also talk about India, colonialism, writing and Kirsty’s involvement in projects such as Bookwallah.
The recording includes a short reading from India dark and Q&A with the audience.
