Watch the Novella event

Did you miss the Wheeler Centre event to celebrate Forgotten Stories – The Novella Project II? You can watch it here

The novella occupies a special place in literature – we all know it’s longer than a short story and shorter than a novel. Famous novellas include some of literature’s greats: Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Wide Sargasso Sea, Animal Farm. But what is it that defines a novella? What are its strengths as a form? And why are we still writing them? 

Cate Kennedy, Megan McGrath, Jane Jervis-Read and Julianne Schultz kick around these questions.
