Join award-winning authors Charlotte Grimshaw and Paula Morris (Ngāti Wai, Ngāti Manuhiri) as they pull back the veil and shine the light on Grimshaw's enigmatic new novel, The Black Monk.
This intriguing work of metafiction is a companion piece to Grimshaw's best-selling 2021 memoir, The Mirror Book. The Black Monk follows writer Alice Lidell as she faces her brother's advancing addiction while trying to make sense of her own role within her family and within a world at war with itself. Described as part psychological thriller, part family saga, The Black Monk explores the shifting sands of domestic and global power dynamics, shame and denial, and the truths and tales we tell ourselves. Do not miss this opportunity to hear two of Aotearoa's finest writers in conversation.
