Long friendships. Bad timing. Emotional infidelity. Dublin.

Join us next week at Libreria for the launch of Little Vanities, the new novel by Sarah Gilmartin () one of the sharpest and most emotionally intelligent voices in contemporary Irish fiction.

Set between Trinity College and middle age, the novel traces the slow shifting dynamics between two couples whose lives become entangled in ways both intimate and destabilising, all unfolding in the shadow of Harold Pinter’s Betrayal. Link in bio

The Book of Birds: A Field Guide to Wonder and Loss brings Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris back together after The Lost Words, this time in tribute to 49 threatened British birds. Macfarlane’s lyricism and Morris’s watercolours and gold leaf turn each species into a small wonder. This is a book about looking harder at what is vanishing.
