In conversation with Elizabeth McCarthy, Program Director of the upcoming Queenscliffe Literary Festival.
What happens when the Zusak’s open their family home to three big, wild, pound-hardened dogs – Reuben, a wolf at your door with a hacksaw; Archer, blond, beautiful, deadly; and the rancorously-smiling Frosty, who walks like a rolling thunderstorm?
From one of the world’s great storytellers comes a tender, motley and exquisitely written memoir; a love letter to the animals who bring hilarity and beauty – but also the visceral truth of the natural world – straight to our doors and into our lives, and change us forever.
Markus Zusak is the international bestselling author of six novels, including The Messenger, Bridge of Clay and The Book Thief - one of the most loved books of the twenty-first century and a New York Times bestseller for more than a decade.
Markus will appear in-conversation with Elizabeth McCarthy, Program Director of Queenscliffe Literary Festival, being held this year from 18–27 October 2024.
