In Conversation with Louise O'Neill on A Bigger Life

Monday, 30 November 2026
About this event
Louise O’Neill is undoubtedly one of Ireland’s most acclaimed contemporary authors. Her complex, sharp novels, including Only Ever Yours, Asking for It and After the Silence, have earned her praise at home and internationally. A Bigger Life marks a departure from her previous work as her first full-length memoir.
As part of the book tour for A Bigger Life, which will be published by HarperCollins and available to purchase from 24th September 2026, Louise will join us at EPIC for an in-depth conversation about the memoir’s many themes and learnings, from women’s rage, to Y2K thinness, modern masculinity, romantic relationships and of course, emigration.
