Event description



Join Helen Brown for a Special Evening: Cats, Connection, and My Accidental Career 

From Christchurch Star columnist to international bestselling author, Helen Brown is back in the heartland to reconnect with longtime readers and meet new ones. 

As a regular panelist on TVNZ’s Beauty and the Beast, Helen was a frequent visitor to Christchurch. Her show, A Slice of Banana Cake, performed with Christchurch jazz singer Malcolm McNeill, raised $40,000 for Kiwi hospices and other charities.  

When Helen moved to Melbourne, Australia, she wrote CLEO, a book inspired by reader response to her columns about how a small black cat helped her family heal after the death of her nine year old son, Sam. The book sold two million copies globally and is in 18 languages. 

Her latest book MICKEY revisits her pre-adolescence in New Plymouth, and the cat who guided her through a rocky transition. 

Join Helen for an evening of laughter, adventure and the occasional purr.
