- **Event Name**: [Author event] Victoria Purman
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 14 May, 2026 at 08:30 am – Thu, 14 May, 2026 at 10:30 am (+10:00)
- **Event Description**: Join bestselling author of The Last Of The Bonegilla Girls, Victoria Purman, as she explores rebellion, freedom and the lives of Australian women in the 1960s in her newest novel, The Marriage Trap. 

Olive and Len Langley and their daughters, 20-year-old Cathy and 10-year-old Evelyn, live a peaceful life in 1960s Adelaide. Grandma Langley turns up each Sunday lunch to castigate them for their dubious morals. 

Cathy, training to become a teacher, thinks women have it tough and is determined not to marry right away. Meanwhile, Evelyn wants to be a fairy princess …until she sees the price women pay for such dreams. 

When the new contraceptive pill arrives women can suddenly sense freedom. But powerful forces are aligned against their reproductive choice, and they find themselves up against their own doctors, the might of the Catholic church, and the outdated morality of previous generations. 

Victoria Purman’s last book The Radio Hour – like her previous novels - was an Australian bestseller, while her earlier novel The Three Miss Allens was a USA Today bestseller. She is a regular guest at writer’s festivals, a writing mentor and workshop presenter, and literature award judge.

Copies of Victoria’s books will be available for sale courtesy of Edgar’s Books Wangaratta, and the Hyphen bar will be open with drinks available for purchase.
