Featherston Booktown at Festival of Christmas 📚🎄
The Bookseller at the End of the World
Tuesday 12 July 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM
Greytown Town Hall
Best-selling author Ruth Shaw runs two tiny bookshops in Manapouri (Fiordland) and has written a delightful memoir called "The Bookseller at the End of the World". In conversation with indie bookseller Susan Jane Ryan (Mr Feather's Den Oddities & Delights), Ruth will weave together tales of the characters who visit her bookshops, musings about favourite books, and fantastic stories from her life - which may include the time she was held up by pirates while sailing the Pacific! You can buy her charming book on the night for signing.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
