The Page Parlour
“Words, once they are printed, have a life of their own.”
- Carol Burnett
The Page Parlour, gathers the undiscovered, the underground and the independent, the obscure and the strange, and sets them in the front row. Get your posters, poetry, (maga)zines, books and journals here.
Bookshelf looking a little empty? Sick of all those Penguin Classics and Picador logos all in a row? Noticed a severe lack of stapled spines and innovative designs jutting out among the generics? Then come to our one day only Page Parlour
The Page Parlour will feature over forty stall holders selling everything from posters to mooks, from zines to literary journals. This is the only place to stock up your bookshelf. This is your chance to get the latest issue of a favourite or discover something completely new; an opportunity to network and meet, to trade, to buy and browse the work of some of Australia’s best zinesters, independent publishers and wordsmiths all together in one atrium.
You won’t find this stuff in Borders, or if you do, it will be somewhere to the back of the magazine stand, on its side behind outdated issues of American political magazines.
