Author Talk - Linda Martin (A Tale of Two Publishing Houses)
About
When Linda Martin goes digging for the story behind a beloved independent publisher, she doesn’t just unearth a rich history – she reignites her own passion for books and sets out to start a press herself.From the daring spirit of two publishing trailblazers in the 1970s to the grit and heart it takes to launch a small press today, this is a tale of vision, tenacity and the magic that happens when people believe in stories.
Part history, part memoir and a love letter to the world of books, it’s a celebration of the dreamers, risk-takers and communities that bring them to life.
Linda Martin is a writer, editor, publisher and co-founder of Night Parrot Press. She teaches publishing and editing at Edith Cowan University, where she completed her PhD. She is passionate about the publishing industry in Western Australia and enjoys mentoring emerging writers and editors.
The Lane Bookshop will be providing copies of the book for sale.
