A special Bookoccino Evening. In a searingly honest, blunt, unsparing, and deeply personal memoir, Bring Back Yesterday, Bob Carr copes with the sudden death of his wife, who collapsed in his arms in a hotel room in Vienna. The former premier of New South Wales also talks about a life of politics and the cost to a marriage. He will be in conversation with Geraldine Brooks, the Pulitzer Prize writer, whose own memoir, Memorial Days, deals with love, loss and grieving. An evening you’ll long remember.
