The Happiness Jar
About
A literary lunch with popular Canberra author and publisher SamanthaTidy as we discuss her new edition of The Happiness Jar (Storytorch Press, 2023).
First published ten years ago, this novel remains fresh and relevant with its themes
of faith and redemption. It’s a carpe diem story set in the remote Kimberleys in West
Australian, bustling Varanasi on the Ganges in India and in urban Australia. The
plight of Vietnam veterans, issues of terminal hereditary disease and fractured family
are all part of this story, which still manages to feel hopeful and full of light.
Barbie Robinson will sit in the other chair for a lively book chat with Sam. You are
warmly invited to then participate actively in the continuing book discussion.
A warming vegetarian soup and crusty bread lunch will be served along with
delicious home cooked Terroux country style desserts. Dietary needs can be
accommodated. Please advise when booking.
Copies of the book will be available for a special event price
