The Good-Hearted Gardeners Global Book Launch

We celebrate the release of Suniti Namjoshi's new book The Good-Hearted Gardeners.

Sybil is a member of The Good-Hearted Gardeners, a Society for Well-Meaning Efforts for the Betterment of Language and the Salvation of the Planet, which her lover, Demo, is allowed to join. It's funded by MI5, who ask them to monetise and weaponise the English language. Soon afterwards they discover that English is even more widespread than anyone had thought. Even the birds and the fish, the cows and the kangaroos can speak it - when they choose. The Good-Hearted Gardeners set about trying to talk to anyone - crows, magpies, robins, goldfish, cows, horses, rats, mice - who will talk to them.

TO BE LAUNCHED by Spinifex Press publishers Susan Hawthorne and Renate Klein. FREE EVENT but registrations required.
