Heather Morris
The Piano Teacher of Montparnasse: An Evening with Heather Morris
The Book Stall welcomes bestselling author Heather Morris for her new book, The Piano Teacher of Montparnasse. The #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Tattooist of Auschwitz returns with a masterful new novel that captures the astonishing bravery of ordinary people in extraordinary times. Ms. Morris will be in-conversation with author Renée Rosen.
Heather Morris is a native of New Zealand, now residing in Australia. For several years, while working in a large public hospital in Melbourne, she studied and wrote screenplays. In 2003, she was introduced to a gentleman who had “a story worth telling,” which formed the basis of her first novel, The Tattooist of Auschwitz, and its follow-up, Cilka’s Journey. Her third novel, Three Sisters, concluded the Tattooist trilogy. One of the twenty-first century’s best-selling books, The Tattooist of Auschwitz was made into an acclaimed miniseries in 2024. Heather’s books have sold over nineteen million copies worldwide.
Our conversation partner Renée Rosen is a USA Today bestselling author. Her novels include Fifth Avenue Glamour Girl, The Social Graces, Park Avenue Summer, Windy City Blues, White Collar Girl, What the Lady Wants and Dollface as well as the young adult novel, Every Crooked Pot.
