Cold-blooded killers, grief-stricken widows, famous artists, independent women with sharp minds and large fortunes and a cap doffed to Jane Austen’s 250th birthday. Do you love historical crime fiction? Top-shelf literary fiction?

The first Launches at the Library for 2025 has it all!

Come hear the authors of Miss Caroline Bingley, Private Detective, Kelly Gardiner and Sharmini Kumar, along with the author of Diving, Falling, Kylie Mirmohamadi, as we celebrate the publication of these outstanding books, in conversation with Stella Prize winning novelist, Carrie Tiffany.

Launches at the Library are curated and hosted by Prof Clare Wright, Professor of Public Engagement, and supported by the Office of the Vice-Chancellor.

Light refreshments available.

The School Locker will also be selling these books at the event.
