WRITERS ON MONDAYS - NEWS PIGS: TIM WILSON

WRITERS ON MONDAYS
NEWS PIGS: TIM WILSON
We're pleased to welcome journalist and novelist Tim Wilson to Wellington. Wilson turned to fiction after his stint as US correspondent for TVNZ, and his first novel Their Faces Were Shining was a finalist in the 2011 NZ Post Book Awards. In this session, he will read from his raucous new novel News Pigs and explore the boundaries of satire, fact and fiction with fellow broadcaster, writer and TV presenter Richard Langston. Join us for what promises to be a highly entertaining session.
Writers on Mondays is presented with Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, the New Zealand Centre for Literary Translation, and National Poetry Day.
DATE:    Monday 14 July
TIME:     12.15-1.15pm
VENUE: Te Papa Marae, Level 4, Te Papa
