amaBooks at the Earth Cafe

We are excited to be doing an event at Earth Cafe in Bulawayo organised by Hubbard's Historical Tours. As well as talking about our publishing journey there will be readings by three writers, John Eppel, Mzana Mthimkhulu and Bryony Rheam.

John will be reading poems from three amaBooks collections: Caruso of Colleen Bawn, White Man Crawling and Textures. John's readings will be accompanied by the acclaimed young cellist, Emma Price.

Bryony Rheam will read from her forthcoming novel All Come to Dust and Mzana Mthimkhulu from his humorous story, 'What's in a Name?' from the amaBooks collection, Moving On.

Books will be sold at reduced prices on the night. Tickets for the event, which includes a two-course dinner, can be booked through Liz at Earth Cafe on 0712 209 565.

The event is supported by Alliance Francaise de Bulawayo.
