AWW22 This Campus Life - Diana Reid and Indyana Schneider Adelaide Writers' Week

    • Books

Chaired by Victoria Purman.

The transformative excitement of university life has been little mined by Australian fiction. In their immensely readable and impressively complex debut novels, Diana Reid and Indyana Schneider explore that most liminal time of campus life to excellent effect. Diana’s Love and Virtue traverses feminism, sexuality and the precocious intellectualism of first year life on a Sydney campus. Indyana Schneider weaves music, literature, art, dance, sex and the exquisite pain and pleasure of first love into student life at Oxford.
