VIRGINIA TRIOLI IS GOING TO DIE

Virginia Trioli is presenter of Creative Types on ABC TV and a former co-host of ABC News Breakfast and host of Mornings on ABC Radio Melbourne. A two-time Walkley Award winner, she spent nine years as a news reporter, features writer, and columnist in Melbourne. Her new book A Bit on the Side: Reflections on What Makes Life Delicious is a gorgeous interrogation of food and memory, but Virginia's not afraid to tackle weightier matters of death and grief. And she's put a lot of thought into what her Dream Funeral may look like....
