BOOK LAUNCH - The Farm by Jessica Mansour-Nahra
Join Jessica Mansour-Nahra at Launceston Library as we launch The Burn, a tense, timely, propulsive and unnerving read.
The Burn examines the myths we believe about ourselves and the people we love. With survival at stake, who do we become?
2030. Devastating bushfires have plunged Australia into lockdown. When stay-at-home orders lift, Carmen isn't relieved. Solitude has suited her too well.
Carmen's best friend, Eleni, convinces her to join her and her boyfriend, Dan, and their friend Rhett on a road trip. After months apart, Eleni says they need an unplugged week away together: a chance for escape and reconnection, laughter and shared history.
But the trip isn't what Carmen expects.
With new fires are racing towards them, forcing the group to find another way out. But how, when the friends no longer trust each other with their lives?
All are welcome. Ticket provides general admission to the talk.
Book sales available at the event by Petrarch's Bookshop.
