Natasha Brown | Roanna Gonsalves

Exploding onto the literary scene in 2023, Natasha Brown’s first novel, Assembly, drew critical acclaim for its succinct prose and insight into race, class and privilege, in only 100 pages. Her latest novel, Universality, skewers nepotism and journalism in a satire that secured Natasha a place on the longlist of the 2025 Booker Prize. Drawing from her own experience as a Black British woman, her novels’ theme centred on power has unsurprisingly resonated with Australian and international audiences. 

In her first Australian appearance since _Assembly _was released, join Natasha alongside UNSW’s Roanna Gonsalves for an evening of conversation and critique. Together, they’ll chart the frontiers of privilege examining the boundaries of cultural pluralism and power.
