The Luminaries: Eleanor Catton
Internationally acclaimed author Eleanor Catton discusses
her second, much-anticipated novel, The
Luminaries. Set in Hokitika during the gold rush of 1866, and
described as an 'astrological murder mystery', the book draws immediate
comparisons to the vast and macroscopic novels of the 19th century. In
conversation with Fergus
Barrowman, Catton will describe the origins, mysteries, and
fates that led to this extraordinary new work.
