The Wheeler Centre: Books, Writing, Ideas, is now open to the public. Situtated in the iconic State Library of Victoria, the Wheeler Centre is the centrepiece of Melbourne's UNESCO City of Literature initiative. They are home to many of Australia's best and best-loved writers, past and present and host an extraordinary network of booksellers, a diverse publishing culture and a vibrant community of thinkers. Want to know more? The Wheeler Centre, on its handsome new website, says it best: Our City of Literature status is not about Dickens on the tram, Nabokov in the Great Southern Stand or a Bronte or two over breakfast. It’s a recognition and celebration of Melbourne’s passionate readers. Being a City of Literature is about engagement locally and globally. Visit them in person at 176 Little Lonsdale Street, Melbourne (the north side of the State Library of Victoria), or at http://wheelercentre.com to find out about all things literary in Melbourne. |
