Grace speaks with Brigid Quirke, writer and critic at Overland on 'Resistance Literature', where we discuss her research that focuses on ways of reading contemporary Palestinian writing, like poetry, which particularly sheds light on the legacy of resistance literature that precedes it.

Claudia speaks with NICA graduate and circus performer Harley Timmermans about his experience at NICA and the potential impacts of Swinburne University of Technology's decision to 'pause' admissions to the school's degree programme.
