An Afternoon with Maggie O’Farrell

Join us for an afternoon with
bestselling author Maggie O’Farrell, as we celebrate the release of her new
novel, Land.

Inspired by the mapping of
Ireland in the mid nineteenth century, the new novel from the author
of Hamnet is at once intimate and epic: a portrait of a family
navigating a legacy of upheaval and survival with resilience and love.

Land is a story of buried treasure, overlapping lives,
ancient woodland, persistent ghosts and a particularly loyal dog. It’s also a story about place, and how layers of
history change landscapes and the people who live in them.

Maggie O’Farrell is the author of nine previous novels, including Hamnet
which won the Women’s Prize for Fiction in 2020.  Hamnet has
been made into a film and Maggie co-wrote the screenplay with
Academy-Award-winning director Chloé Zhao. The film has already won Best Motion
Picture – Drama at the Golden Globes and the audience award at multiple film
festivals including Telluride, Toronto and London.  Maggie’s bestselling books
include the novels After You’d Gone, The Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox, The
Hand that First Held Mine and her memoir I Am, I Am, I Am.

The £30 Book & Ticket bundle includes a stamped author signature Trade Paperback copy of Land exclusive to the Land tour for collection on the afternoon.

The £39 Book & Ticket bundle includes a hardback copy of Land.
