 
 THE WELLINGTON COMPANY CONGRATULATES ELIZABETH KNOXWINNER Of THE 2009 WELLYS - ARTS AWARD
 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 recognized Elizabeth Know for her excellence and commitment to literature, and to have been sponsors of these Awards. We also congratulate ALL the Nominees in the Arts Award Category as these VERY talented individuals enhance the quality of our lives and significantly contribute to Wellington the ‘Cultural Capital’.
