Dennis Glover

Dennis Glover grew up in the working class Melbourne suburb of Doveton before studying at Monash and Cambridge universities and becoming one of Australia’s leading speechwriters. His debut novel The Last Man in Europe, the dramatic story of how George Orwell wrote Nineteen Eighty-Four, was nominated for several literary prizes in Australia and abroad. His other novels Factory 19 and Thaw are about the destruction of working class life and the lost Scott Antarctic expedition – they seek to reinvent the political novel. His latest non-fiction book, Repeat: A Warning from History, asks the question: ‘Do you ever stop and ask, is it all going to happen again?’
