Henry Lawson’s Crumbs Podcast

6 days ago

This podcast series coincides with the 100-year anniversary of Henry Lawson’s death. We explore Lawson through the eyes of a Lawson scholar and through one "meeting" Lawson for the first time. The podcast includes events from Lawson’s life and examination of his works. The series is called the Henry Lawson’s Crumbs Podcast because of a newspaper column Lawson wrote early in his career—the column was called Country Crumbs and so, borrowing “Crumbs” from that title we recognise we cannot discuss all aspects of Lawson’s life and work but, rather, we focus on interesting and significant crumbs.
