Waleed Aly in conversation with Amy Sambrooke at Blue Mountains Writers Festival

Join one of Australia's most trusted voices as Waleed Aly sits down with Amy Sambrooke to discuss Reasoning with Chaos, his guide to finding sense in uncertain times.

Drawing on years of columns and commentary, the collection chronicles a period of profound upheaval, revealing threads he didn't see at the time. Twelve new essays tie the collection together, tackling our shifting relationship with technology, what's genuinely revolutionary about this moment, and what really matters in life, despite the overwhelm and confusion so many of us feel. The result is a real-time record of a chaotic age, recast with hindsight and clarity, from a writer and broadcaster renowned for making the incomprehensible make sense.
