Description

There’s nothing better than relaxing during summer with a good book. And now State Library Victoria has your reading list sorted with some of this season’s hottest page turners. Samah Sabawi is an award-winning author, playwright and poet. In Cactus Pear For My Beloved, Sabawi recounts her family’s story, starting 100 years ago in Palestine under British rule and ending in Redland Bay, Queensland. This is a story of love, open-heartedness and the enduring human spirit. Hear directly from Sabawi as she explores how she went about writing such an intensely personal story, the themes she wanted to convey and more. Plus, get the chance to ask any of your burning questions. Book your tickets now and get reading!
