The Good Word Debate
As part of TVNZ 7’s special New Zealand Book Month programming The Good Word Debate will see some of New Zealand’s best-known writers facing up to an unsettling suggestion about the state of the homegrown literary scene.
Stepping up to argue the moot 'New Zealand Books Deserve Special Treatment' the debate will be staged at Auckland's St Matthew-in-the-City. Developed as a spin-off from TVNZ 7's popular books series The Good Word, the debate is now in its third year, this time playing a key role in the launch of NZ Book Month, which has moved to March for the first time.
Three of the stars of The Good Word series lead the cast of the debate - comedian Te Radar as moderator and novelist Emily Perkins and journalist Finlay Macdonald as team leaders. Writers CK Stead, Neil Cross, Steve Braunias and Neil Cross will also feature.
