About this event

  • Event lasts 3 hours

Dymocks Knox City is thrilled to bring acclaimed novelist Robbie Arnott, in conversation with fellow author Alli Parker, to our famous Books in Bars setting at Urban Alley Brewery Knox to celebrate the release of Dusk.


In the distant highlands, a puma named Dusk is killing shepherds. Down in the lowlands, twins Iris and Floyd are out of work, money and friends. When they hear that a bounty has been place on Dusk, they reluctantly decide to join the hunt. As they journey up into this wild, haunted country, they discover there's far more to the land and people of the highlands than they imagined. As they close in on their prey, they're forced to reckon with conflicts both ancient and deeply personal.


Praise for 'Dusk.'

'Magnificent' - Tim Winton

'Dusk is a sublime novel of loss and redemption, fight and surrender, that left me in absolute awe. Robbie Arnott's prose is incandescent, his storytelling mythic and filled with a wisdom that extends beyond the page. With Dusk, he asserts himself as one of Australia's finest literary writers.' - Hannah Kent


We can't wait for what promises to be a wonderful night of bookish conversation at the bar to celebrate the launch of this incredible novel. Come join us at Urban Alley to meet Robbie over a cheeky mid-week wine or gin, and get your books personally signed on the night!
