    Karori Library Cauldron of Creation: this month’s new fiction

    • 13 Jun 2023
    • Wellington City Libraries
    • However, this month’s choice was easy – the new book by top Irish writer Liz Nugent Strange Sally Diamond leapt immediately to the top of the list, especially with our very unexpected role in its creation.

This event featured Liz Nugent in conversation with our own multi award winning author, Kirsten McDougall.
