Fiction as
blender and centrifuge, as the weather inside the house, as
maelstrom and wormhole. What we hope it can do to and for
us, and where it can take us. In this lecture, the novelist,
essayist, and memoirist Elizabeth Knox will talk about the
freedoms and strictures of fiction and non-fiction. She’ll
explore the notions of subject-matter, audience, and
authenticity – then she’ll kick them around the room and
talk about getting away with writing crazy stuff, and why
anyone would want to. Elizabeth is the author of twelve
novels and three
novellas.
