Description
Two years ago this month RNZ National's Culture 101 was launched. And a guest on our very first show, introducing comedy radio drama series The Mysterious Secrets of Uncle Bertie's Botanarium was writer and comic Duncan Sarkies. Since then Duncan has published Star Gazers, his third novel, which is about the collapse of democracy amongst a society of alpaca breeders.
At the end of this month Duncan is at the Word Christchurch festival. He's running a masterclass on 'Writers as Explorers', reviving his series I'd Love to Have a Beer with Duncan and in Cabinet of Curiosities will be talking with other writers about weird and wonderful obsessions.
Duncan Sarkies joins Mark Amery on Culture 101.
