Roundtable is dedicated to exploring classic novels from Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and other genres of speculative fiction, through an authorial lens. We aren't going to spend an hour giving a novel a rating out of 10, or complaining about our unfulfilled ships... probably. Our rotating cast of up-and-coming authors analyse and evaluate stories to identify what makes them tick, why we love them, and what other storytellers can learn from their successes and failures.
Roundtable is an extension of Meridian Australis, a Melbourne-based speculative fiction collective home to authors from all works of life, hoping to put Australia's best and brightest on the map. We're made and run by writers, for writers.

Harvey is joined by Matt to discuss Susanna Clarke's 2021 novel, Piranesi. We analyse and argue over the text's compelling narrative voice, its sense of mystery, and its exploration of the nature of consciousness and memory.
