Meet the Author: Lauren Chater

In collaboration with the NSW Public Libraries Association and with the support of Simon & Schuster, City of Canada Bay Libraries present a virtual event. Join us for an entertaining evening as Lauren Chater, author of Gulliver's Wife, has a conversation with Meg Keneally, author of Wreck.

Chater's works are known for their atmospheric and richly detailed storytelling. Gulliver's Wife is the tale of Mary Burton Gulliver, who sets out on a journey to discover the truth about her husband's travels, and the landscape of her own heart.

Meg Keneally is the co-author of the historical crime Monsarrat series, which she writes with her father Tom Keneally.

Sydney-based Lauren Chater is the author of the bestselling historical novel The Lace Weaver and the baking compendium Well Read Cookies: Beautiful biscuits inspired by great literature. She is currently working on her third novel, The Winter Dress, inspired by a real 17th century gown found off the Dutch coast in 2014. In her spare time she loves baking and listening to her children tell their own stories.
