In Conversation with Noel Braun
Event description
Visit the Ballaarat Mechanics' Institute and hear from the author of No Comfort on a Chilly Night - Noel Braun.
Felix Schmidt is backpacking on the Camino de Santiago when he meets the love of his life, the beautiful French Pascaline. He brings her back to Australia, where he joins a new firm of management consultants. Deeply engrossed in the company’s growth, he neglects Pascaline. She believes his addiction has reduced him as a person, wearies of his obsessive workaholism and returns to France.
"No Comfort on a Chilly Night is a story of love, unchecked ambition, regret and recovery. Noel Braun shows us how corporate demands can corrupt the balance between worldly ambition and personal fulfilment. A timely reminder for those of us suffering from the stress and anxiety of modern life." – Kenneth Price, author.
In partnership with Collins Booksellers on Lydiard.
