Libraries host author talk

Peter Bannan

PASSIONATE fiction and non-fiction author Robert Gott will be visiting the Swan Hill, Robinvale and Barham libraries next month.

Robert Gott is the author of the William Power series of crime-caper novels set in 1940s Australia.

Swan Hill Council libraries manager Camille Cullinan said she was excited to be welcoming Mr Gott to the region.

“Robert has published many books, including his seven crime novels of which two have been shortlisted for the Ned Kelly Award for Best Crime Fiction,” she said.

He is also the creator of the newspaper cartoon The Adventures of Naked Man.

Ms Cullinan encouraged members of the Swan Hill, Robinvale and Barham communities to come along and learn more about Robert and his many books.

To book your spot, call 5036 2480.
