Exploring Sydney’s past and present with writer Roslyn Jolly

In episode 10 of Sense in the City Sydney, Ruby meets up with travel writer, author and academic Roslyn Jolly. They enjoy lunch under a large umbrella in the rain on the terrace of a cool, converted incinerator in the lower north shore. They discuss Roslyn’s favourite writers and texts on Sydney, her perfect day in town (with lots of walking!), and her love of the city’s harbour, beaches and bushland.
