In recent years the young adult novel has become a much disputed genre; simultaneously lauded and condemned, it is variously described as too violent and serious for its presumed audience, too juvenile and fantastical to be considered literature, and as a marketing invention that never in fact had an audience. Margo Lanagan and Neil Gaiman have earned reputations as 'crossover' writers. Lanagan's Tender Morsels has been lauded as her first 'adult' novel as well as a young adult classic while Neil Gaiman's work continues to cheerfully decline all attempts at classification. Join them in conversation with Kate De Goldi as she asks: "What makes it children's literature?"<br /> <br /> TICKETS:<br /> $18 General Admission<br /> <br /> VENUE:<br /> Embassy Theater<br /> -41.29462626262478 x 174.78415489196777<br /> <a href="http://www.nzfestival.nzpost.co.nz/venues/embassy-theatre-10-kent-terrace" target="_top">http://www.nzfestival.nzpost.co.nz/venues/embassy-theatre-10-kent-terrace</a><br /> <br /> MORE INFORMATION:<br /> <a href="http://www.nzfestival.nzpost.co.nz/writers-and-readers/once-upon-a-time" target="_top">http://www.nzfestival.nzpost.co.nz/writers-and-readers/once-upon-a-time</a> wheresneil1268200800 2010-03-10T00:00:00-06:00 Town Hall Talk: Neil Gaiman<br /> <br /> WHERE:<br /> <a href="http://www.nzfestival.nzpost.co.nz/venues/town-hallilott-theatre" target="_top">http://www.nzfestival.nzpost.co.nz/venues/town-hallilott-theatre</a><br /> <br /> MORE INFORMATION:<br /> <a href="http://www.nzfestival.nzpost.co.nz/writers-and-readers/town-hall-talk-neil-gaiman" target="_top">http://www.nzfestival.nzpost.co.nz/writers-and-readers/town-hall-talk-neil-gaiman</a> wheresneil2010-02-2112:05:12 2010-02-21T12:05:12-06:00 Join us as Neil Gaiman reveals the winners of the prose fiction, comics and short film categories on Wednesday, March 17, 7PM at the Rockwell Tent, Power Plant Mall.<br /> <br /> He will also unveil the Philippine Graphic/Fiction Anthology, a compendium of the winning entries plus selected stories from the past contests.<br /> <br /> A special raffle will be held to award slots for an exclusive book signing on the same night.<br /> <br /> Mark your calendars and see you there!<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.fullybookedonline.com/ad_details.asp" target="_top">http://www.fullybookedonline.com/ad_details.asp</a> wheresneil2010-03-0306:26:19 2010-03-03T06:26:19-06:00 17-17.40 Warsaw, Q&A sesion Empik Junior Marszalkowska Str.<br /> 18.00 Signing books, Empik Junior Marszalkowska Str<br /> <br /> More information to follow. wheresneil2010-02-2112:02:18 2010-02-21T12:02:18-06:00 WHERE:<br /> North Central High School<br /> Indianapolis, IN<br /> <br /> The author will not be signing copies of his works but free commemorative book plates will be available.
