Talk at library
JOURNALIST and former foreign correspondent with The Guardian, Ben Doherty, will visit Bathurst Library this Friday, July 13 at 6.15pm to talk about his debut novel Nagaland.
Nagaland is in the north-east of India, with an eastern border to Burma.
Inspired by a true story, the novel centres on Augustine Shimray and describes his early days as a member of a close-knit family in the small, remote village of Ukhrul.
It’s a village where everyone knows everyone else and ancient traditions sit alongside Christianity and mobile phones.
Bookings for Ben Doherty’s talk can be made by calling the library on 6333 6281.
