George Haddad & Omar Sakr
Manage episode 354077931 series 2342985
The authors of two of 2022's most anticipated releases, Arab-Australian writers Omar Sakr and George Haddad, come together to discuss their debut novels about family, history and identity, and Western Sydney. Omar’s Son of Sin is a story of growing up queer and Muslim that illuminates the bonds that bind families, and how they can break. George’s unflinching Losing Face reflects Australian identity back to readers, while testing the notion that facing consequences makes us better people. They speak with Sarah Malik.
