Whales, whaling, Antarctica and the climate crisis, all come-together in a fascinating new nonfiction book, from local debut author Dr Sandy Winterbottom.

  • A conversation and Q&A with the author

  • Pictures viewing & book signing (copies available at discounted price)

  • Vegan potluck and BYOB

"The Two-Headed Whale": Life, loss and the tangled legacy of whaling in the Antarctic.

At this in-person author event, Sandy will present photos from her voyage and archive images from the historical whaling expeditions of the mid-twentieth century, along with extracts from the book.

There will be an opportunity for questions and discussion, and to purchase the book for a discounted price.
