SUMMARY:Louise O'Neill: A Bigger Life
DESCRIPTION:Join award-winning author Louise O'Neill in conversation about her first memoir\, with author Sophie White\n\n\nDublin Book Festival is delighted to present an evening with award-winning author Louise O’Neill to celebrate her new book\, A Bigger Life. Known for her sharp and unflinching feminist writing\, with bestselling novels including Idol and Asking for It\, Louise will now join author Sophie White in conversation about her first memoir. \nAt 38\, Louise had the life she thought she wanted—until her long-term relationship ended\, taking with it the home\, future\, and sense of certainty she’d built. Part memoir\, part manifesto\, A Bigger Life is a candid\, courageous exploration of what happens when the life we have built is upended\, and how\, when one door closes\, another opens. Heartbroken but defiant\, Louise made the radical decision to say yes to everything\, to take risks\, and to reclaim her life—on her own terms. What followed was a dating experiment that took her across the world and challenged everything she had been taught to settle for – in life\, love\, and in herself. Both candid and full of wit\, this memoir is a courageous exploration of modern womanhood\, sexual freedom\, and the myths we’re sold about what makes a life worthwhile. It’s about embracing uncertainty\, finding joy after heartbreak\, and creating space for the version of yourself that doesn’t play small. \nJoin us for an evening of reflection\, insight and uplifting humour as we consider the question at the heart of the book: What does it really mean to live a bigger life? \n \nLouise O’Neill is the bestselling and multi-award-winning author of Only Ever Yours\, Asking For It\, Almost Love\, Idol and Whatever Happened to Madeline Stone.. Known for her sharp\, fearless feminist writing\, she has become one of the most important voices in contemporary Irish literature. Her work has been widely praised for its bold social commentary and emotional depth. A Bigger Life is her first full-length memoir. \n \nSophie White is an award-winning novelist\, essayist and podcaster from Dublin. She is the author of books including Filter This\, The Snag List\, Corpsing and Where I End\, which won the Shirley Jackson Award for best novel. Her seventh book and fifth novel\, My Hot Friend won the An Post Irish book Award for Popular Fiction. Her latest book\, Such A Good Couple\, was published last year. Sophie writes a weekly column ‘Nobody Tells You’ for the Sunday Independent LIFE magazine. \n \nThere are two ticket options available for this event. The Book & Ticket bundle includes a trade paperback edition of A Bigger Life. \nPlease note we may be capturing imagery at this event for use on our social media and website. \nTo hear first about future Dublin Book Festival\, events sign up to our newsletter here. \nWith thanks to our venue partner 1WML.

SUMMARY:Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor: End Times Fascism
DESCRIPTION:Join acclaimed authors and activists Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor for a powerful conversation around their new book\, End Times Fascism\n\n\nDublin Book Festival is delighted to welcome renowned writers and activists Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor to Dublin to discuss their forthcoming book\, End Times Fascism: And the Fight for the Living World. This blistering reckoning with our age takes us deep into today’s man-made Armageddon complex – and shows us how to stand against it before it’s too late. \nAn award-winning journalist and author of bestsellers including No Logo and Doppelganger\, Naomi Klein has become one of today’s most powerful and influential voices across issues ranging from corporate globalisation to social and climate justice. For this forthcoming book\, she joins forces with fellow award-winning author and documentarian\, Astra Taylor\, for a revelatory look at the growing far-right movement\, and how we can build a collective response strong enough to stop it. \nAn apocalyptic alliance of religious fundamentalists\, billionaire Silicon Valley tech kings and ethno-nationalists is on the move\, towards a catastrophic future from which they are convinced they will be spared. Klein and Taylor investigate how\, around the globe\, those who are making our world unliveable through climate chaos and job-consuming AI are preparing to protect themselves from the fallout. And yet these new supremacist survivalists remain vulnerable in that they have no vision of a shared future. Now\, more than ever\, is a critical moment to stand together and defend what’s left of democracy\, before it’s smashed up beyond repair. \nThe authors will join award-winning journalist\, photographer and author\, Sally Hayden\, for a powerful and ultimately hopeful evening of conversation around how we can collectively break the doom loop and find a better way of living together\, rooted in our existence on this earth. \n \nNaomi Klein is an award-winning journalist and documentary filmmaker\, and the best-selling author of Doppelganger\, No Logo\, The Shock Doctrine and other acclaimed books\, which have been translated into 35 languages. She is associate professor of geography and codirector of the Centre for Climate Justice at the University of British Columbia\, and writes a regular column for the Guardian. Doppelganger was the winner of the Women’s Prize for Nonfiction and named one of the ten best books of the year by New York magazine\, Slate\, and Time. \n \nAstra Taylor is an award-winning writer\, activist\, documentarian\, and co-founder of the Debt Collective. She is the author of The People’s Platform\, which won the American Book Award\, and Democracy May Not Exist But We’ll Miss It When It is Gone and The Age of Insecurity. Taylor regularly writes for publications including The New Yorker and The New York Times. Taylor toured with the band Neutral Milk Hotel and was the 2023 CBC Massey Lecturer. She is represented by Melissa Flashman at Janklow and Nesbit. \n \nSally Hayden is an award-winning journalist\, photographer and author. Her first book\, My Fourth Time\, We Drowned: Seeking Refuge on the World’s Deadliest Migration Route won the Orwell Prize for Political Writing\, the An Post Irish Book of the Year Award\, the Michel Déon Prize\, the Terzani Prize\, and was shortlisted for the Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction\, among others. This Is Also a Love Story: Searching for Good in a Divided World’ is Sally’s second book\, published May 2026. She was named overall ‘journalist of the year’ at the Irish Journalism Awards in 2023 and 2025. \n \nThere are two ticket options available. The Book & Ticket bundle includes a hardback copy of End Times Fascism. \nPlease note we may be capturing imagery at this event for use on our social media and website. \nTo hear first about future Dublin Book Festival\, events sign up to our newsletter here.

SUMMARY:Dublin By Dusk: Mythology in Fiction
DESCRIPTION:Kim Curran\, Eilish Fisher and Dave Rudden in conversation with Jo Kerrigan\n\n\nIn partnership with the National Museum of Ireland. \nWhat happens when ancient myths are reborn for the modern world? Join us as we explore how the power of mythology continues to inspire contemporary writers. Kim Curran’s Brigid (Penguin) is a radical reimagining of Ireland’s beloved saint. Eilish Fisher’s The Waters and the Wild (Penguin) is a moving verse novel about grief\, family\, hope\, and the world beyond what we know. Dave Rudden’s Sister Wake (Hodder & Stoughton) is an action-packed epic fantasy of rebellion\, intrigue\, horror\, dangerous gods\, and Celtic mythology. The authors join author Jo Kerrigan in conversation. \nPlease note we may be capturing candid imagery at this event for use on our social media and website. \nKim Curran was born in Dublin and grew up in London. She holds a degree inPhilosophy and Literature from Sussex University and is a freelance Creative Director and Royal Literary Fund Fellow. She is the author of The Morrigan and Brigid. \nEilish Fisher lives in a small coastal town in Co. Wicklow with her husband and son.

SUMMARY:Words\, Stories and the Irish Way of Life
DESCRIPTION:Join Colm O'Regan and Páraic Kerrigan for a warm and witty conversation around their latest books\n\n\nWhat makes something quintessentially Irish? And what do the words we use\, the stories we tell and the cultural moments we remember reveal about us? \nJoin Colm O’Regan and Páraic Kerrigan for a warm\, witty and wonderfully Irish conversation inspired by their new books. In Tipping Away (Gill Books)\, Colm turns his attention to Hiberno-English\, exploring the words and expressions that have evolved through our workplaces\, homes\, pubs\, communities and everyday lives. In Pop Culchie (Eriu)\, Páraic delves into the oddities and eccentricities of Irish popular culture\, from Daniel O’Donnell and the Fat Frog to national moral panics\, forgotten pop acts\, unusual scandals and the curious history of Housewife of the Year. \nIn conversation with arts journalist Pat Carty\, they uncover the humour\, quirks and contradictions that make Irish culture so distinctive — and ask why we are\, quite simply\, the way we are. \n \nPáraic Kerrigan is an Irish Times bestselling author\, researcher and Assistant Professor at UCD. He was also a star in the smash hit second season of The Traitors Ireland\, where he was selected as a traitor. His expertise in Irish popular culture stems partly from academic study and partly from an unhealthy level of affection for Irish pop music and cult films. He maintains\, without irony\, that Fade Street and Dublin Wives are key national texts worthy of serious scholarly attention. He also believes that Six’s “There a Whole Lot of Loving” is one of the great\, overlooked achievements of Irish musical history. Following several unsuccessful attempts to become a pop star\, he turned to writing books instead. His previous book\, Reeling in the Queers\, was shortlisted for an Irish Book Award in 2024. \nColm O’Regan is an acclaimed Irish author and columnist\, known for his humorous explorations of Irish life and culture. He is the author of eight books\, including the Irish Mammies trilogy\, Bolloxology\, the Ann Devine novels and Climate Worrier. As a stand-up comedian\, MC and event host\, he has performed all over the world. He has written for and performed on TV and radio and has a weekly column for the Irish Examiner. He lives in Dublin\, but the language of his birthplace of Dripsey in Co. Cork is still very much in his heart. \nPat Carty is a freelance arts journalist and broadcaster whose work has featured in The Sunday Independent\, The Sunday Times\, The Irish Examiner\, The Irish Independent\, The Irish Times\, The Business Post\, Hot Press\, and Classic Rock Magazine. He’s a regular contributor on RTE Radio One’s Arena\, and on several Newstalk shows including The Hard Shoulder\, Moncrieff\, and Lunchtime Live. He’s turned up on television the odd time too but producers are unanimous in their opinion that his is a face for radio.

DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate the launch of The Professor in Erin by Charlotte McManus\n\n\nJoin us to celebrate the launch of The Professor in Erin by Charlotte McManus. A German scholar exploring ruins hits his head in a fall. He wakes to find himself in a parallel universe: an Ireland that never was\, free of English rule since winning the Battle of Kinsale. In this powerful\, independent nation\, Irish language and culture are flourishing. This landmark work is an important early example of utopian fiction and of Irish science fiction\, and Tramp Press is proud to be presenting it to a new generation of readers through its Recovered Voices series. \nWhile this event is free\, by making one of your tickets a ‘Supporter’s Ticket‘ you will be making a valuable contribution towards keeping future events accessible and towards the sustainable growth of Dublin Book Festival. \nPlease note we may be capturing candid imagery at this event for use on our social media and website. \nCharlotte Elizabeth ‘L’ McManus (1853–1944) is best remembered today for The Professor in Erin\, which was originally serialised in Arthur Griffith’s Sinn Féin Weekly in 1912. A nationalist and a member of the Gaelic League\, she is also known for her patriotic historical novels. She also helped to establish the second branch of the Gaelic League in Mayo\, and was a member of the Irish Literary Society.  \nTo hear first about future Dublin Book Festival events sign up to our newsletter here.
