2010 - an inspiring journey of words on Waiheke - and the inaugural Waiheke Book Festival
The Mudbrick Classic Sunday Brunch showcases some of New Zealand’s finest - ever novels. The iconic Popular Penguins with retro orange covers celebrate 75 years. We acknowledge the Kiwi classics of this range. As C.K. Stead says, "Language is what defines us on our planet." Writing and words expand our knowledge of the world around us and help us understand our own patch.
Listen to poetry, which like music and art, awakens the senses. Enjoy award winning writers and novelists. Discover the passion of Martin Hill, environmental artist / photographer.
Festival programme includes: Charlotte Grimshaw, Sarah Laing, Gordon McLauchlan, C.K. Stead, Roger Horrocks, Gordon Brown, Martin Hill, Richard Wolfe, Julie Le Clerc, Fionna Hill, Graham Beattie and Dame Catherine Tizard.
The Waiheke book festival is island style - eclectic and informative, fun and relaxed. Enjoy. Book Now
