In Conversation With Gina Chick & Suzanne Chick at Pilu
Pilu at Freshwater – In Conversation Series
Powerhouse authors, mother and daughter duo, Gina and Suzanne Chick join Pilu at Freshwater.
Gina Chick’s book ‘We Are the Stars’ revisits her wildly unconventional childhood. Gina Chick blazed her own trail, which led her to dance through the hidden world of ’90s Sydney nightlife into the arms of a conman. She fled to the wilderness to find healing, began a wondrous love affair with the deepest lessons life – and death – can offer, and found that all the answers are written in the wisdom of the body and the whirling silence of stars.
Thirty years ago, Gina Chick’s mother Suzanne Chick wrote a bestselling memoir after discovering that her birth mother was none other than iconic Australian writer Charmian Clift. That book, Searching for Charmian, is now being rereleased for Mothers’ Day 2025 with a new foreword by Gina and an afterword by Suzanne.
