From the pen of historical fiction doyenne Jenny Pattrick, one of this country’s bestselling novelists with books including 'The Denniston Rose' and 'Heart of Coal', comes this year’s 'Harbouring'. The story begins in 1839 as Welsh foundry worker Huw Pengellin embarks with his family on a journey of hope, enticed by Colonel Wakefield’s plans to take settlers to the distant shores of New Zealand. On the other side of the world, Hineroa yearns for escape from servitude and to be reunited with her people. Their entwined lives chart a changing landscape of colonial Wellington – political, social and geographical – in another feat of masterful storytelling. She discusses her writing and research revelations with author and journalist Nicky Pellegrino. FRIDAY 26 AUGUST 2022 – 11.00AM-12.00PM KIRI TE KANAWA THEATRE, AOTEA CENTRE
