A Crooked Rib - Judy Corbalis
This lively historical novel explores the scandalous marriage of Sir George Grey & his feisty young wife Eliza Lucy.  New Zealand in the mid-1800s is brought vividly to life, with well-known historical figures & boldly-drawn Maori characters. Fascinating!
Judy is home from London to launch this new novel. Please join her, & Penguin Random House, for a highly entertaining evening.

After two brilliantly successful short story collections, we are delighted to be launching Sue Orr’s long-awaited first novel.  Set in a farming community in 1970s New Zealand, it explores individual bravery versus silent, collective complicity. Stunning!
Please celebrate with Sue, Penguin Random House, & poet Paula Green who will launch the book.
