In 2021, writer Trent Dalton spent two months sitting on a street corner of Brisbane’s CBD armed with a 1960s Olivetti typewriter and sign saying “sentimental writer collecting love stories”.
The result? Love Stories, a best-selling homage to our city’s rich and complex relationships. Now it’s time to dust off the old Olivetti and revisit where it all began.
Join Trent and a troupe of emerging writers in King George Square on Friday 6 September from 12pm-2pm to help continue sharing the love, in a one-day only pop-up event. Whether it’s love lost or found, brief or everlasting, pour your heart out and help continue the legacy of sharing the love this Brisbane Festival.
