Glasshouse Port Macquarie and Mid North Coast Co-operative Library Service present:
David Nicholls: You Are Here
When feeling lost, let love rewrite the map
Bestselling author David Nicholls is known for his love stories, including Us, longlisted for the Booker Prize, and One Day, which has sold 5 million copies and was adapted into a Netflix series.
His latest, You Are Here, mixes first encounters and second chances for its midlife protagonists. Marnie feels life is passing her by. Michael burrows into himself after his wife’s departure. Both find romantic redemption in the English countryside amid pithy observations and pop culture references.
Let David help you find your way on the winding road through life’s most encompassing emotion – love – in conversation with Jennifer Byrne.
