The Monster at the End of This BookGolden Books - handout
As a 4-year-old, Brad Parks was so ravenous for The Monster at the End of This Book that his older brother - facing endless requests to read the story - finally recorded a version on an audio cassette.
For Parks, now an accomplished author, the book was a formative introduction to suspense. The fact is, he says, I am 46 years old, I write thrillers for adults, and in some ways all I ve ever tried to do is replicate The Monster at the End of This Book. There is a monster at the end of all of my novels, and I want you to feel this unbearable compulsion to turn pages and find out what it is.
Kate Lucas,
Coda Chroma, performs songs that are drawn from personal dreamscapes and real-life encounters, delivering poetic honesty, with a nostalgia for the unknown.
And that’s excatly how Kate Lucas does things, she recalls how she felt on the day of the performance: I felt very nervous to perform that day - we had a brand-new drummer who was learning the parts up to the day of the set (mind you she played brilliantly and really nailed it), so my brain was being a pain and overthinking things. But the main thoughts for the day I had were on how supported I feel by peebs and how lucky Melbourne is to have such an incredible community broadcaster!
