This distinguished US writers last appeared at New Zealand Post Writers and Readers Week three years ago. This is another rare chance to hear this writer speak about his work. For many who attended his Writers and Readers Week sessions, essayist Eliot Weinberger was one of the discoveries of the year, with his poetic essays and incisive commentary on US politics. He returns to Wellington with a new book of extraordinary nonfiction, An Elemental Thing (New Directions).
