Join Niamh Mulvey and Joseph O’Connor in conversation as they reflect on their lives and influences as writers in this Bealtaine-originated event celebrating the links between writers of different generations.
Niamh Mulvey’s first book, Hearts and Bones, is a collection of short stories about Ireland, the relationship between Ireland and London; families, love, misunderstanding and heartbreak. Her first novel, The Amendments, will be published in 2024.
Award-winning and beloved historical novelist Joseph O’Connor returns with his 10th novel, My Father’s House, a fascinating adventure through the archives, a semi-biographical narrative of an Irish priest working in Nazi-occupied Rome, who helps to hide, organise, and smuggle out enemies of the fascist state.
In conversation with author and culture reviewer Henrietta McKervey.
In partnership with the International Literature Festival Dublin.
