Lucia Osborne-Crowley’s I Choose Elena and Ellena Savage’s Blueberries interrogate what it means to make one’s way through the world as a woman, within its structures of power and oppression. Lucia's powerful memoir explores how trauma affects the body, bringing to our attention its cyclical, intergenerational nature. Ellena’s blend of personal essay, polemic, prose poetry, true-crime journalism and confession considers class and capitalism versus art and freedom. These two exciting young Australian authors discuss their work with Maeve Marsden.
