The reading takes place on Tuesday, November 20, Creative Zone, Boole Library, UCC, at 6.30pm. Admission is free and all are welcome.
Paul Lynch is the author of three novels – Red Sky in Morning, The Black Snow and most recently, Grace, a coming-of-age novel set against the unfolding tragedy of the Famine, which won this year’s Kerry Group Irish Novel of the Year.
Carys Davies is the current Frank O’Connor International Short Story Fellow. She is the author of two collections of short stories, Some New Ambush and The Redemption of Galen Pike, which won the Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award in 2015. Her first novel, West, is an epic-in-miniature, set in Frontier America in 1815 and was published earlier this year.
