Scorpio Books and Otago University Press warmly welcome you to an author talk featuring Lynley Edmeades in conversation with Kiran Dass.
Scorpio Books and Otago University Press warmly welcome you to an author talk featuring Lynley Edmeades in conversation with Kiran Dass. Lynley Edmeades is the author of HidingPlaces, a compelling and beautifully written meditation on early motherhood and creativity published in September 2025. Told through a series of fragments that range from raw and troubled to delightful and hilarious, this remarkable book responds to the unexpected shocks and discoveries of becoming a mother, drawing on excerpts from family letters and secretive medical records, and advice contained in Truby King’s 1913 tract, Feeding and Care of Baby. This author talk will include discussion on this wonderful and strange book, already a favourite with the Scorpio Books staff. All welcome, this is a free event. Refreshments provided. Please send in your RSVP.
Thursday 27 November, 5.30pm @ Scorpio Books, Five Lanes, 120 Hereford Street
