FREE LECTURE: Helen Trinca Lecture

Helen Trinca will discuss her experience of writing a boigraphy of highly-regarded Australian novelist Madeleine St John. The lecture will be held at the Webb lecture theatre on Thursday the 16th of May. This event is free and will start at 6:30pm, running for approximately an hour.

Madeleine St John was the first Australian woman to be shortlisted for the Booker Prize.

Her novels sparkle with warmth and wit and yet her own life reveals a far more troubled story of loss and abandonment.

Spanning the twentieth century and early twenty-first century, "Madeleine" is an unforgettable insight into the life of a fiercely talented and a highly-acclaimed Australian writer.

Copies of "Madeleine: a Life of Madeleine St John" will be signed by Helen Trinca on the night and will be available for purchase at the Event Price of $30 (RRP$32.95).

Copies of Madeleine St John’s novels, "Women in Black", "Stairway to Paradise", "Pure Clear Light" and "The Essence of the Thing" will also be available for purchase.
