TENDER HEARTS, SONS OF BRUTES: Tim Winton on lost boys and toxic masculinity


Brisbane Powerhouse proudly presents an exclusive evening with acclaimed West Australian author Tim Winton as he delivers a powerful meditation on lost boys and the riptide of toxic masculinity.

With a specially commissioned soundscape and stunning photographic interludes, this is an hour long event exploring the declarations and fraught silences that mark the journey to adulthood for so many young men.

Join us for a very special experience as the pre-eminent novelist of his generation brings words, images and sounds to the discussion of our most bewildering and desolate landscape – contemporary manhood.

Renowned as one of Australia’s most acclaimed writers, thinkers and essayists, Tim Winton has won the Miles Franklin Award four times and twice been shortlisted for the Booker Prize.

**includes a signed copy of Tim Winton’s new book, The Shepherd’s Hut (rrp$39.99)

Writers+Ideas is supported by O’Neill Architecture and RPS.
