WRITERS ON MONDAYS - WELLINGTON

9 AUGUST: The Sportswriters: Harry Ricketts & Paul Thomas

What makes a great sportswriter? Harry Ricketts’ new anthology of sports writing selects work by journalists, sports reporters, novelists, playwrights, poets – and the sportspeople themselves, from Martin Crowe to Melissa Moon. He debates the merits of our sporting literature with crime novelist and NZ Herald commentator Paul Thomas, refereed by basketballer-turned-wine-writer John Saker.

Writers on Mondays is presented by the International Institute of Modern Letters and The Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa.
These events take place at 12.15-1.15pm, at The Marae, Level 4, Te Papa.
They are open to the public and free of charge.
