Meet the Author Karen Viggers, a best-selling Australian author whose books are enjoying success in France for a Q&A along with a book signing.
She has three published novels: The Lightkeeper’s Wife (La Memoire des embruns), The Stranding (La Maison des hautes falaises), and The Grass Castle (to be published in France 2017).
La Memoire des embruns was recently awarded a People’s Choice award for 2016 in France.

Karen writes contemporary fiction set in wild Australian landscapes. Her work explores connection with the bush, grief and loss, healing in nature, death, family, marriage and friendship.
Her books also tackle challenging issues like whale rescue, kangaroo culling and scientific research on animals. Karen is a wildlife veterinarian who has worked and travelled in many remote parts of Australia, from Antarctica to the Kimberley. Her novels are well known for their evocative portrayal of Australian landscapes and native wildlife.

The Café Littéraire gives you the opportunity to meet the writer and discuss about her work, inspirations, challenges through a Q&A session; Karen will also do a book signing.
