Is there a true story that only you can tell?
Maree Giles, an award winning author,
journalist, Royal Literary Fund Fellow and creative writing tutor, moved to SW
France in 2013.
Since Maree
spoke about her book ‘Invisible Thread’ based on her own astonishing story
at last year’s Festival, there has been a Royal
Commission Inquiry held in Sydney into events at Parramatta Girls’ Home and the Hay Institution for
Girls, both of which are the focus of ‘Invisible Thread’. Following
the enormous media and public attention Hachette Australia are republishing ‘Invisible Thread’ this year. Maree Giles is also in discussion with
producers to make a film based on her story.
