Author Talk – The Names of a Hare by Bernice Barry

  • City of Perth Library 573 Hay Street Perth, Western Australia, 6000 Australia (map)

Join us with Bernice Barry as she discusses her new book, The Names of a Hare, with a special in-conversation event hosted by Will Yeoman.

The Names of a Hare begins in Cornwall, 1628. A young girl guards a dangerous secret: she can leave her body and fly. Steeped in herbal lore and forbidden spells, the girl becomes a woman, while across the land whispers of witchcraft turn deadly. When witchfinder Matthew Hopkins sets out to hunt her down, their meeting will change the course of history. In a world that fears what it cannot explain, a story shared is the most potent magic of all.

This event is part of The City of Perth Library’s Not a Book Club, a series of author talks for readers who love stories, ideas, and conversation—without the homework.
