Welcome to 2020! 

We get stuck into our first #litfestbookclub reviews of the year, having read the recommended January readings in the 2020 Australian Literary Journal - Taboo by Kim Scott and Blakwork by Alison Whittaker. Hear Amy read a stunner poem, Caroline cringe over the buzzword "trauma" and also we discuss the upcoming events in the Literary landscape for February! 

Be sure to watch out for our companion interview with Sisonke Msimang, Curator of the Literature and Ideas Program of the Perth Festival kicking off this week! 

Shout out to the Poetry Unbound podcast that is on heavy rotation at Amy's house and please let us know if you're planning any live readings Alison Whittaker - we want in!
