Small Town Stories with Kirsten McDougall and more

From cosy picket fences to Gothic murder-villes, small towns continue to fascinate us, in fiction and in real life. Catherine Robertson, Kirsten McDougall and Diane Grant discuss their enduring appeal, and share their own favourite local legends. 

This is an event involved in the Featherston Booktown Festival on Friday 10th, Saturday 11th & Sunday 12th May celebrating everything to do with books, writers and reading. The three-day programme includes writing workshops; poetry readings; talks by leading authors and illustrators; and a book fair including stalls with rare and second-hand books. There are also events specifically for children.
