LIBRARY

Please join us for a reading and Q&A session with author Rosie Milne who will discuss her historical fiction title, Olivia & Sophia . The book chronicles the difficulties of being an expat in Singapore 200 years ago! Think that travel is exhausting now? The horrors of an economy seat on a long-haul flight have nothing on the horrors of sea voyages in the time of Sir Stamford Raffles. The author will discuss European life during that time as well as the trials and tribulations of Olivia and Sophia, the wives of Singapore’s founding father Sir Stamford Raffles. One a raffish beauty with a scandalous past, and the other a curious but intelligent lady, Olivia & Sophia is an intriguing tale of overcoming challenges.
