Woollaston Poetry in the Vineyard

Vincent O’Sullivan is one of New Zealand’s leading writers – author of the biography of John Mulgan, several novels, and many plays, collections of short stories and poems. He has received numerous distinguished awards, residencies and fellowships, and his writing has been widely published nationally and internationally.

His most recent poetry collection, The Movie May Be Slightly Different, displays the wit, intellectual agility and arresting beauty he is renowned for.

Vincent will be introduced by Nelson poet Louise Wallace, who won the Biggs Poetry Prize in 2008, published her first collection Since June in 2009, and now teaches creative writing at NMIT.
