Book Talk: A Week in September

This Valentine’s Day, meet award-winning and bestselling writer Peter Rees as he uncovers the story of war, love, resilience and survival in his book, A Week in September.

The book is based on the discovery of a precious cache of Second World War letters, revealing a tale of enduring love in the most testing of circumstances.

The book talk will be followed by afternoon tea and viewing of the Shrine’s latest special exhibition Lust Love Loss: Australian stories of wartime relationships with curator Neil Sharkey.
