About this Event

Join us for an evening with Madeleine Dunnigan as she discusses her book Jean – a queer coming-of-age story set in the heat of the summer at bohemian boarding school in 1970s Sussex. Spellbinding and evocative, Jean is a meditative narrative of loss and escape distilled into the heartrending story of an intense and dangerous adolescent love.

Madeleine Dunnigan is a writer from and based in London. She was the Jill Davis Fellow on the New York University Fiction MFA (2022–24). Jean is her debut.
