Join Andrew HC McDonald for the launch of his debut novel The Montegiallo School of Swearing.
Accidentally buying a Sicilian villa for just one euro is not the great Eat, Pray, Love game changer that Brian Chapman hopes it would be. Instead, tumbledown buildings, a shortage of plumbers, and resentful locals make Brian’s drunken whim look like the biggest mistake of his chequered career so far. Who could believe that an outbreak of swearing would lead not only to cultural reconciliation but to this very Australian fish out of water finding true love in Italy?
The launch will take place at the State Library of Western Australia on Thursday 24 April. Andrew will be in conversation with author and journalist Chenée Marrapodi. Copies of the book will be available to purchase on the night.
This is a free event but please reserve your tickets via the Fremantle Press Humanitix: https://buff.ly/gmTdnFx
