Lenore Taylor and David Uren with Alan Kohler

Cinema Nova, Lygon Court, Lygon Street, Carlton

From respected journalists Lenore Taylor and David Uren comes the inside story of the Rudd government’s first term in office. It is a tenure that will be forever defined by the Global Financial Crisis, or—to use the Prime Minster’s term—the ‘shitstorm’ that engulfed the nation and the world.

Their book Shitstorm: Inside Labor’s Darkest Days tells the inside story of the new Rudd Government’s response to the greatest economic crisis in 75 years. Based on interviews with every key player in government and the bureaucracy, it reveals how close Australia came to disaster, what the government did to avoid it and the unforeseen consequences it must now face.

Lenore Taylor and David Uren will be in conversation with the Eureka Report’s Alan Kohler.
