Join author Fiona McArthur at Tamworth Library as she discusses her book ‘The opal miner’s daughter’.
Obstetrician Riley Brand leaves the city behind to go in search of her mother, who’s pursuing a passion for opal mining in the dry backblocks of an old mining town. This is a heartwarming story about finding out who you really want to be.
Drawing from her earlier life as a rural midwife, Fiona McArthur shares her love of working with women, families and health professionals in her books.
Fiona is the author of the non-fiction book ‘Aussie Midwives’, and lives on a farm with her husband in northern New South Wales.
The author talk will be followed by afternoon tea provided by Friends of Tamworth Library and the opportunity to buy Fiona’s book supplied by Collins Booksellers Tamworth and have her sign it.
