Women in History

In partnership with National Library Ireland.

Two historical fictions shining a light on two captivating women. Martina Devlin’s Charlotte (The Lilliput Press) is a story of Charlotte Brontë’s short but pivotal time in Ireland as never before told, bound by passion and obsession, friendship and loss, loyalty and deception. Nuala O’Connor’s Seaborne (New Island) is an intimate and thrilling portrayal of the life, legend and high-sea adventures of 18th-century Irishwoman, Anne Bonny. Join the authors in conversation with author Emily Hourican.
