| | | Colm Tóibín: Long Island | | | | | | Join the acclaimed novelist for an exclusive event, live in London and online, as he introduces Long Island, his sequel to Brooklyn.
Brooklyn is the story of Eilis Lacey, a young Irishwoman who emigrated to the United States following the second world war. In this richly imagined sequel, we’re reunited with her 20 years later: it’s the 1970s, and she has built a secure life with her Italian-American husband and children. But when a stranger from Ireland brings shocking news, she starts to question the life she has created. Has she made the right choices? And is it too late to take a different path?
Don’t miss the chance to hear Tóibín discuss his return to this moving story of immigration, alternative lives and lost love. | | Thursday 23 May 2024, 7pm–8.30pm BST | | Book tickets |
