The country’s oldest literary museum, where Frank Sargeson lived and wrote from the 1940s until his death in 1982, will be open to the public as part of NZ Book Month. Restored by the Sargeson Trust, with the assistance of Hayden and Rollett, this beautifully restored home is a significant part of the history of the North Shore.
This event celebrates Sargeson’s 109th birthday and the publication his letters edited and selected by Sarah Shieff.
Listen to Sarah Shieff talking with Chris Laidlaw about the Sargeson Collection of Letters.
