Celebrate History Month with bestselling author Victoria Purman as she discusses The Marriage Trap, her charming yet sharply observed novel set amid the social upheaval of 1960s Adelaide.

From the arrival of the pill and the rise of rebellion to skimpier skirts and the Beatles, Purman explores how ordinary Australian women embraced new freedoms in a rapidly changing world.

Meet the Langley family—Olive, Len, and their daughters Cathy and Evelyn—whose peaceful suburban life is regularly disrupted by Grandma Langley, arriving each Sunday like a bad fairy to critique their morals.

Join us for an insightful conversation with one of Australia’s top‑ten and USA Today bestselling authors, celebrated for The Radio Hour, The Three Miss Allens, and many more.
