2023 Brisbane Writers Festival
DATE: 10 May – 14 May 2023, 5 Days
VENUE: Queensland State Library
DESCRIPTION:
2023 Brisbane Writers Festival is coming in May! For the second year, BWF is presenting its Country of Focus program, an initiative highlighting the dynamic literature of the Indo-Pacific region. The festival has the pleasure of hosting extraordinary South Korean talents, beginning with the incredible children’s book authors/illustrators Gihun Lee and JiHyeon Lee, then expanding to include some of the most exciting and subversive voices in South Korean literature: Bae Suah, Choi Eunyoung, Lee Young-ju, Krys Lee, and literary luminary Bora Chung. Their astonishing work probes the psychological disquiet of modernity through radical formal innovation and devastating intimacy.
