It turned out to be a great night last night for Gabrielle Everall's launch of her book titled Venus Without Furs, despite the venue being changed at the last minute, and moving three doors away to The Shady Lady bar, 36 Johnston St Fitzroy. MC'd by the fabulous Michael Reynolds and launched in a very entertaining manner by the wonderful Claire Gaskin. It was a great event for a great book. An instant classic
