We are delighted to have Reading’s friend Hugh Mackay talking about his new novel, The Therapist.

This is a powerful and poignant story of deception, ambiguity, lust and love – and the challenge of living with the consequences of our actions. It is described as a 'domestic mystery' with a plotline that tenaciously holds our attention through secrets, twists, romance and devastating acts of revenge.

Hugh Mackay is a social psychologist and bestselling author. The Therapist is his ninth novel. His non-fiction writing covers social and cultural analysis, psychology, communication and ethics. Hugh is a Fellow of the Australian Psychological Society and the Royal Society of New South Wales, and was appointed an Officer of the Order of Australia in 2015.

Free, but bookings are essential.
