Walking Sydney : Fifteen Walks with a City's Writers

Walking Sydney invites you to walk with a city's writers as they share their places of home and imagination. From the streets of the suburbs to the shores of the harbour, as we walk amid diasporas, countercultures, activists, artists, dreamers and thieves, the city comes alive with story.

Written by Belinda Castles from walks taken with fifteen writers, this is an opportunity to see the city afresh through the eyes of those who know it best. Each walk reveals a different Sydney—intimate, surprising, and rich with personal and cultural history.

Join Jazz Money in Eveleigh and Carriageworks, Fiona Kelly McGregor in Surry Hills, Gail Jones around The Rocks, Walsh Bay and Circular Quay, Eda Gunaydin in Parramatta, Vanessa Berry along King Street in Newtown, Malcolm Knox in Freshwater, Sheila Ngọc Phạm in Yagoona and Bankstown, Delia Falconer around Rushcutters Bay Park and Elizabeth Bay, Jakelin Troy in North Willoughby and Middle Cove, Max Easton in Casula and Liverpool, Neal Drinnan through Kings Cross, Elizabeth Bay, Darlinghurst and Surry Hills, Beth Yahp in Bronte and Clovelly, Michael Mohammed Ahmad at Bankstown and Punchbowl Boys' High School, Michelle de Kretser along the Cooks River, and Larissa Behrendt in the City and Redfern.
