PROVERSE LAUNCHES NEW BOOKS

 ***

Thursday, 5 March 2015

 The subject of the University of Hong Kong Libraries' Book Club meeting, held on  5 March 2015, was, "Proverse Prize Library Talk". Six among the Hong Kong-based writers who have won success in the International Proverse Prize for unpublished writing introduced their now-published works. The authors were: Rupert Chan, Lawrence Gray, Peter Gregoire, Birgit Bunzel Linder, James Tam and Rebecca Tomasis. Their books are varied in subject, genre, intention and tone, and should have something of interest for everyone. All who have spoken about the evening have been full of praise. Each author spoke well and the balance of speakers and topics made for a highly successful presentation.
