The Healing Party by Micheline Lee Q&A: 6 April, 2017

"With her debut novel, The Healing Party, Micheline Lee breathes new life into the dysfunctional family narrative. Emotionally honest, at times funny and remarkably original, Lee’s novel paints a compelling portrait of a family grappling with their faith in the face of grief and conflict." – Stella Charls

Micheline Lee was born in Malaysia and migrated to Melbourne when she was eight. After completing law at Monash University, she lived in Darwin for 15 years. She has worked as a criminal prosecutor and as a painter, holding exhibitions in Australia and overseas. Micheline now lives in Melbourne with her partner and son. Shortlisted for the 2017 Victorian Premier's Literary Award, The Healing Party is her first novel.

Micheline will join us for a Q&A on Thursday, 6 April between 8 and 9pm. Please leave any questions you have below. (And discuss her writing at your leisure!)
