Join us for a morning with award-winning author Patricia Schonstein in conversation with Lucinda Jolly about her latest novel: The Glass Island. Schonstein’s surrealist autobiography examines the shortcomings of humanity. Daring and enchanting, her eighth novel sparkles with her signature theatrical style, sensuality, and candour. Her characters come to life with remarkable precision. The Glass Island is woven together with poetry, artworks, and exquisite food, offering a meditation on beauty and brutality, and on humanity’s enduring fascination with war. 

Patricia Schonstein is a novelist, poet, anthologist, and children’s author. Her work has been endorsed by two Nobel Prize laureates: Archbishop Desmond Tutu (Peace, 1984) and J. M. Coetzee (Literature, 2003). Her writing has been translated into several languages, and she is the recipient of numerous prestigious literary awards.
