Salon with Chris Flynn

Overview

Chris Flynn has accomplished much in his career. He has written (as of now) two novels; one of which, named A Tiger in Eden, was shortlisted for the 2013 Commonwealth Book Prize. The Irish-born writer moved to Australia in 1999, and has had work featured in numerous publications such as The Paris Review, The Big Issue, The Age and Meanjin.

His newest novel, The Glass Kingdom, is reportedly a wickedly inventive look into the lives of a pair of never-do-well carnival workers and their attempts to turn their salt of the earth jobs into a high-earning, meth-dealing operation. Sounds pretty interesting, huh?

If you are curious to know more, Chris Flynn will be having a chat with 4ZZZ’ Sky Kirkham at Avid Reader Bookshop. In addition to this much anticipated conversation, several new writers will be introduced. Salon is a regular event sponsored by Arts Queensland; each event allows keen readers to sit in on one-on-one conversations with notable authors.

Bookings are essential as space is limited. Secure your spot through the Avid Reader website.
