"Developing a project can feel like being lost in the middle of the ocean" Duncan Sarkies on the joy of discovery
Two years ago this month RNZ National's
Culture 101
was launched. And a guest on our very first show, introducing comedy radio drama series
The Mysterious Secrets of Uncle Bertie's Botanarium
was writer and comic Duncan Sarkies. Since then Duncan has published
Star Gazers
, his third novel, which is about the collapse of democracy amongst a society of alpaca breeders.
At the end of this month Duncan is at the Word Christchurch festival. He's running a masterclass on 'Writers as Explorers', reviving his series
I'd Love to Have a Beer with Duncan
and in
Cabinet of Curiosities
will be talking with other writers about weird and wonderful obsessions.
Duncan Sarkies joins Mark Amery on
