Live stream direct from the Edinburgh International Book Festival

In conjunction with Edinburgh International Book Festival, we are delighted to present this special livestream event with Colm Tóibín.

Colm Tóibín – author of 12 books including the multi-award-winning Brooklyn – is one of modern Ireland’s greatest writers. He talks with Chris Power about his breathtaking new story collection, The News from Dublin, exploring the lives of those living far from home: from Galway to Barcelona, Enniscorthy to San Francisco, and beyond. This promises to be an illuminating conversation with a true master of the craft.

Supported Claire & Mark Urquhart and Culture Ireland.

Please note: this event is streamed at Perth Art Gallery in partnership with the Edinburgh International Book Festival.
