High Heels and Politics
The background to her first novel, Campaign Ruby, is a general election in Australia. Writing with her inside knowledge of politics in Australia, political blueblood Jessica Rudd talks to Douglas Kerr, Professor of English at the University of Hong Kong, about getting started as a novelist and about the combination of politics and chick-lit that has made Campaign Ruby a runaway success. Discover how art can imitate and even anticipate what happens in life.
The Press Room, 108 Hollywood Rd, Central, www.festival.org.hk Fri 18, 3.30pm; $450.
