Cabinet of Curiosities, WORD Christchurch

Having spent the past <mumble mumble> years writing a novel in which Ernest Rutherford has a small (off-page) role, it seems timely to step into ER’s lecture theatre to deliver a tiny lecture of my own, as part of WORD Christchurch’s Shifting Points of View spring 2019 season.
