Blue Lake: Finding Dudley Flats and the West Melbourne Swamp
Through the years of the Great Depression and beyond, the wetlands, rubbish tips and shanties of Dudley Flats, a neglected zone hidden in plain sight just a stone’s throw away from central Melbourne, was home to a transient community of hundreds of men and women.
In this talk, author David Sornig will discuss Blue Lake: Finding Dudley Flats and the West Melbourne Swamp, a history of this largely forgotten world, and the tragic, enterprising, eccentric and determined lives that were lived there.
