About this Event

'It begins on an orange afternoon, cool but ruminant, close to Halloween. Sunny, only four years old, loks up from the terrarium-sized tub of toys in the living room and asks, 'Mama, do you remember when I died?'

Over the course of the next strange, strained year, Sunny will refer repeatedly to her previous lives and how they ended.
Her parents, Lena and Odhran -- who rushed headfirst into family life after an accidental pregnancy and a hasty registry office wedding -- are left desperate for answers.

Niamh Campbell is the author of This Happy (2020) and We Were Young (2022). She has won the Rooney Prize for Irish literature, one of Ireland's most distinguished prizes and the Sunday Times Audible Short Story prize.

Róisín Lanigan is an editor and writer based in London and Belfast. Her work has appeared in theNew York Times, Financial Times,The GuardianandThe Fence, amongst other publications. I Want to Go Home But I'm Already There is her first novel.
