At the Irish launch of THEY SHUT ME UP

Huge thanks to all involved in the Ennis International Fantastic Film Festival for hosting the Irish book launch of THEY SHUT ME UP. In the beautiful environment of the Temple Gate Hotel, I was interviewed by film maker and director of the Ennis Book Club Festival, Martina Durac, in a conversation that spanned folklore, feminism, bodies, geography and agency. Thanks also to the amazing Ennis Bookshop, a beautiful independent bookshop, for organising the book signing.

I also spoke on a panel about folklore and film, introduced The Wicker Man in ARC cinema, and presented the award to Irish short film Lamb in glór.

If you live in Clare and want a physical novella copy, support independent bookshops, by popping in to the Ennis Bookshop for one of the remaining signed copies, or to the gorgeous Banner Books stores in Kilrush and Ennistymon.

Happy reading!
