Writers Festival 2019 – The Joy of Swimming: Annette Lees

Auckland Writers Festival 2019 presents their Weekend Gallery Series including a diverse range of speakers hosting events across Sat 18–Sun 19 May. 

A paean to outdoor swimming, Swim is also Annette Lees’ diary of her year of swimming, through which she threads tales of New Zealand urban swims, brave swims, night swims, forbidden swims, famous swims, winter swims, tough swims of the Cook Strait, and the swimming antics of the ANZACs. Join Lees as she tells some watery tales.
