Luke Elworthy - The Last Letter of Godfrey Cheathem
Luke Elworthy discusses The Last Letter of Godfrey Cheathem, a satire that explores being the average sibling in a family of creative geniuses and pokes fun at Kiwi life. Luke reflects on his teen years at a conservative boarding school and a commune, his publishing work, and life in Marlborough.
Luke Elworthy was in conversation with Jason Henry at the 2023 Marlborough Book Festival.
Please note that Luke's readings from the book contain some strong language. If you're around kids or would rather avoid swearing, you might want to listen later or grab some headphones.
