🔖 Books and Readers: An Author’s Perspective on the world of Publishing
We have the pleasure of hosting Author Stuart Kells who has written several volumes in the category of ‘books about book’ (our personal favourite being his one titled "The Library: A Catalogue of Wonders").
His most recent book is a history of Australia’s oldest and most prestigious university press, Melbourne University Publishing. He also wrote a major history of Penguin Books, ‘Penguin and the Lane Brothers’. In this PMI talk, Stuart shares stories and insights from his research and from his own career in the book world. His focus is on the attractions of books, publishing and libraries as subjects for writing.
📚 MUP: A Centenary History will be available for purchase on the night.
Bookings are essential with a gold coin donation for entry.
