On 13 July I delivered the 72nd Morrison Lecture at the Australian National University in Canberra. My topic was 'Morrison's World' - the world of George E Morrison, the real-life journalist and adventurer who was the inspiration behind my last novel A Most Immoral Woman. You can see the lecture - beginning with Geremie Barmé's introduction - on You Tube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lV9M_xCVhBc. It's a bit over an hour long so you may want to get a cuppa first...
