IWD: Literary Lunch with Diana Reid

When is self-care about getting what we want and when is it about giving to others? In this lunchtime fireside chat, Diana will share more about how she found herself writing her first novel during the pandemic, finishing her second novel, and the themes that emerged in her writing: self-actualisation, selfishness, desire, consent, love and family. Diana’s newest book, Seeing Other People, is a darkly funny story of two very different sisters, and the summer that stretches their relationship almost to a breaking point. How do we define the line between selffulfillment and selfishness?
