QAGOMA MEMBERS QUEENSLAND WEEK PROGRAM
MEET THE AUTHOR: FÉLIX CALVINO
Friday 6 June | 3.30pm
Members Lounge, QAG
Join us for a special event during Queensland Week with local author Félix Calvino as he offers insights into his recently published novella, Alfonso (2014). Members may recall Calvino's beautifully written collection of show stories,A Hatful of herries (2007), featured on the members Book Club list during 'Portrait of Spain: Masterpieces from the Prado' in late 2012.
Local author and academic Venero Armanno describes Calvino's new work as 'a gentle yet searching exploration of a Spanish migrant's feelings and experiences in the country Australia used to be more than 40 years ago. Félix Calvino infuses the stuff of everyday life with tenderness and magic.'
Bookings required / $15 Members / $20 Members' guests / Includes coffee tea and cake / Book online or call (07) 3840 7278 to RSVP by 5 June
