A month after the cancellation of Randa Abdel-Fattah from Adelaide Writers' Week, it has been revealed the Palestinian Australian author will speak at the one-off literary event Constellations.
Constellations was organised to fill the void left by the scrapping of this year's Writers' Week, following a mass boycott by authors in response to Abdel-Fattah's cancellation.
Abdel-Fattah will be appearing in conversation with former Writers' Week director Louise Adler at Adelaide Town Hall on March 1.
Palestinian Australian author Randa Abdel-Fattah will appear next month at an alternative event to this year's now-cancelled Adelaide Writers' Week, after she was uninvited from the original literary festival.

A rebel literary festival created in direct response to the cancellation of Adelaide Writers’ Week will feature the two women at the centre of the major event’s implosion.
At the one-off new event, cheekily titled Constellations: Not Writers’ Week, Palestinian-Australian writer Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah – whose removal from AWW sparked the events that last month led to its cancellation – will speak with former Writers’ Week director Louise Adler, who resigned after writers boycotted the event en masse.
Several authors from the original AWW line-up are on the bill, including former Greek finance minister Yanis Varoufakis, writer and academic Professor Clare Wright, former Australian Greens leader Bob Brown and Miles Franklin Award winner Melissa Lucashenko. (Varoufakis is speaking with Abdel-Fattah in Sydney and with Adler in Melbourne at separate Australian Institute events in March.)
