Australia and New Zealand are often considered close cousins. But why, despite being so close, do we know so little about each other? And is there such a thing as national character?
Join us for a book club webinar with award-winning journalist and author Laura Tingle, moderated by My Bookshop’s Corrie Perkin.
Tingle’s November 2020 Quarterly Essay, The High Road: What Australia Can Learn from New Zealand, considers everything from the two countries’ current leadership to the ways each has dealt with their colonial legacies.
What could Australia learn from New Zealand? And New Zealand from Australia? Hear highlights from the discussion in the player above, or watch on YouTube.
