Fans of the grand
master of historical fiction, Edward Rutherfurd, need to get in quick to see
him at the Auckland Writers & Readers Festival later this month. His first
session, A Tale of Paris, chaired by Jim Mora, is already sold out.
Due to demand the Festival has created a second session. Tickets are available for a Friday 17 May event, 1pm (Lower NZI Room, Aotea Centre) and can be purchased from The Edge website.
In his latest
novel Paris, which went on sale this week, Rutherfurd illuminates Paris
as only he can: capturing the romance and everyday drama of the men and women
who, in two thousand years, transformed a humble trading post on the muddy
banks of the Seine into the most celebrated city in the world. This is the epic
novel of the city of love, the city of splendour, the city of dreams.
Edward
Rutherfurd’s Friday session will be chaired by Auckland book seller, reviewer
and book champion Doris Mousdale.
