Bill Callahan's novelette "Letters to Emma Bowlcut" was the subject of spirited bookclub discussion between Donna Morabito, Kulja Coulston, Mic Looby and special guest musician Damon Smith. It is a strangley compelling book (emphasis on strage) where we are privvy to only half the letters exchange between the un-named protagonist and Emma Bowlcut. It is both insightful and hilarious. |

'The Family Law' ebook sparks a lively discussion of paper vs digital when it comes to recreational reading. This month 3RRR's bookclub discusses Benjamin Law's debute 'The Family Law', the hilarious and insightful collection of essays from one of Australia's most notable and emerging talents.

Alex Miller's latest offering "Lovesong" just won the Age book of the Year Award. Kulja Coulston, Josh Earl and Paula Kelly convene for October's bookclub. It's certainly not a simple love story, but when is love simple anyway? Without giving away the twist in this novel, we read from the book, and discuss its central themes. It's fair to say we each LOVED it, a big thumbs up, and recommended reading for your own bookclub. |
