Trent Dalton on feeling seen

Hey, book clubbers! Today, we are so thrilled to be bringing you this interview with Aussie journalist and award-winning author Trent Dalton. Trent is the author of so many novels you’ve probably read already, including Love Stories, All Our Shimmering Skies, and of course, his widely acclaimed, semi-autobiographical novel, Boy Swallows Universe (which has been adapted for television and will soon be hitting your Netflix screens). Trent is a captivating storyteller if you’ve read his written work, and you’ll witness that magic in this interview. Join us for all the book chat over on our Insta, @theshamelessbookclub, and our TikTok, @theshamelessbookclub.
