Harvard Book Store welcomes COLM TÓIBÍN, BELINDA MCKEON, MARY O'DONOGHUE, SALLY ROONEY, and STEPHEN SEXTON for a panel discussion on the state of Irish writing and Granta 135: New Irish Writing, moderated by DANIEL TOBIN. This event is co-sponsored by Culture Ireland and Poetry Ireland Review.
About Granta 135
A century ago the Irish took up arms to end British rule—the Easter Rising marked the beginning of a period of drastic social and political changes that continue to reverberate through Irish life.
Aesthetically, too, it has been a century of great experimentation, exploration and evolution. Granta 135: New Irish Writing celebrates one of the most distinguished literary traditions from a contemporary perspective, showcasing new writing from up-and-coming talent as well as from the country's most established voices.
An issue of fiction, memoir, reportage, poetry, photography, and art that will chart the many places, identities and stories that make up a nation, New Irish Writing features Kevin Barry, Eimear McBride, Belinda McKeon, Donal Ryan, Colm Tóibín, and many others.

FAQ:
Can I request a personalized inscription?
Unless otherwise noted, we are happy to take requests for the author to sign your book to a specific person, but we can't guarantee it. If you do get a personalized inscription, the book will be non-returnable. We will require credit card information when you place the order.
Do signed books cost more?
There is no extra fee for a signed book!
Do I have to pick it up in the store, or can you deliver my signed book?
As with all web or phone orders, we can hold your book for in-store pickup, or ship it anywhere in the country.
I am planning to attend an author event. Do I need to pre-order a book?
No need. We'll be selling books at the event, and nearly all of our events include a signing at the end of the talk.
