About the event
We're so excited to host the launch of Khadro Mohamed's first novel, Before The Winter Ends, published by Tender Press.
Her debut poetry collection, We're All Made of Lightning, won the Jessie MacKay Prize for Poetry at the 2023 Ockham New Zealand Book Awards.
Before the Winter Ends explores the relationship between mother and son across Aotearoa New Zealand, Somalia and Egypt as they search for understanding and try to bridge the distance between them. Khadro Mohamed’s debut novel is a stark portrayal of how the past illuminates the present and how grief shapes a family.
All welcome!
