Chris Bennett Author

  • Graduate House 220 Leicester Street Carlton, VIC, 3053 Australia (map)

Roy Boy is the compelling story of Christopher Bennett who was born and raised in the working-class suburb of Fitzroy in the 1950s and 1960s. In those days it was considered a slum area and the close-knit community had more than its fair share of ratbags, drunks and crooks. A cheeky and boisterous kid of migrant parents, Chris roamed the streets and nearby haunts for fun and adventure and found much more than he bargained for – including trouble with authorities and exile from his home and family.

Chris will speak at our regular lunch meeting at Graduate House.

RSVP to Maureen due midday Friday prior to meeting with your choice of Main Meal ($36) or soup and salad.
