We are delighted to host a conversation between Patrick Marlborough and Aksel Dadswell as they discuss genre fluid writing and Patrick’s novel, Nock Loose.
Nock Loose is a screwball comedy revenge thriller, Game of Thrones meets Wake in Fright meets Kill Bill meets The Simpsons – like nothing else in OzLit.
Joy is a gifted archer, a retired Olympian and a former stuntwoman on a cult Japanese tokusatsu show. Raised by a feckless grifter, her home is Bodkins Point. For 150 years, this small town has hosted an annual ultra-violent medieval festival called ‘Agincourt’. During the festival, Bodkins Point transforms – assuming a parallel identity that plays tug-of-war with the way its townsfolk live for the rest of the year.
This session is for adults.
Please Note: Bookings open 1 August 2026.
