THE WELLINGTON COMPANY CONGRATULATES ELIZABETH KNOX

WINNER Of THE 2009 WELLYS - ARTS AWARD
Elizabeth Knox

Elizabeth Knox is an adventurous and imaginative fiction writer, whose novel, The Vintner’s Luck, was a huge success with readers and critics alike; winning a Montana Book Award, and the Tasmanian Pacific Region Prize. The Vintner’s Luck has been made into a film by Niki Caro. Dreamhunter (2005) and Dreamquake (2007) form a thrilling novel duet, aimed at young adults. Both books earned American Library Association Best book awards, and Dreamquake won a Michael L Printz Honor in 2008. Twilight author Stephenie Meyer recently called the duet: ‘wonderful, amazing and unique ... like nothing else I’ve ever read.’

The Wellington Company is delighted that the judges have recognised Elizabeth Knox for her excellence and commitment to literature, and to have been sponsors of these Awards. We also congratulate all the Nominees for the Arts Welly. They enhance the quality of our lives and significantly contribute to Wellington the “Cultural Capital.”
