Join us for the second edition of the literary series Irish Voices, with the poet, novelist and short story writer Caoilinn Hughes, organized by the UZH Swiss Centre of Irish Studies.
Caoilinn Hughes is the author of Orchid & the Wasp, which won the Collyer Bristow Prize and was longlisted for the International Dublin Literary Award, and The Wild Laughter, which won the Royal Society of Literature’s Encore Award and was longlisted for the International Dylan Thomas Prize. She was recently the Oscar Wilde Centre Writer Fellow at Trinity College Dublin, and will be a Cullman Fellow at the New York Public Library for 2023-2024.
We will discuss her latest novel, The Alternatives, which centres around four sisters who try to reconnect when the eldest seemingly vanishes into the Irish countryside.
The reading and discussion will be in English and takes place at the Zurich James Joyce Foundation, Augustinergasse 9, on Saturday, March 21, at 5.30 p.m.
