Heather took us back in history to Van Diemen’s Land, whisked us across the globe to the champagne vineyards of France and spoke from the heart about writing through thick and thin. The award-winning and best-selling author of Museum of Modern Love, Bruny and Nothing Bad Ever Happens Here was joined by celebrated Canberra author Karen Viggers, in a candid, compelling and warm conversation.
 

This event was held in partnership with the Canberra Writers Festival.

The Library was pleased to host a program of events as part of the 2025 Canberra Writers Festival. The Canberra Writers Festival celebrates literature, ideas and storytelling in all its forms, and provides a platform for both established and emerging writers to share their work and engage with audiences.
