This Suburban Life
Friday 19 February, 11.30am
The recent books by Tony Birch, Steven Carroll and Martin McKenzie-Murray are very much about the fabric of suburbia – drama played out against the backdrop of everyday life. They talk to Rachel Robertson.
Location: Romeo Tent, Perth Writers Festival Precinct

Book Launch: A Murder Without Motive
Friday 19 February, 4pm
A Murder Without Motive is a police procedural, a meditation on suffering and an exploration of how parts of the justice system make sense of the senseless. It is also a memoir – a mapping of the suburbs in which the author grew up and a revelation of the dangerous underbelly of adolescent ennui. Join Martin McKenzie-Murray for the launch of his new book.
Location: Tropical Grove, Perth Writers Festival Precinct

True Crime
Saturday 20 February, 1pm
Kidnapped by Mark Tedeschi is the riveting account of Australia’s only known kidnapping of a child for ransom; A Murder Without Motive by Martin McKenzie-Murray examines the killing of Perth girl, Rebecca Ryle. They talk to Amanda Ellis about senseless crimes.
Location: Romeo Tent, Perth Writers Festival Precinct
