Maggie O’Farrell Presents Land in Frankfurt

Acclaimed Irish-British novelist Maggie O’Farrell brings her latest work, *Land*, to Frankfurt am Main for a special evening. Set in Ireland after the 1840s famine, the novel was published in June 2026 and marks O’Farrell’s return to historical fiction following her Women’s Prize for Fiction-winning *Hamnet*. Attendees can expect an intimate author talk and book signing, offering a chance to hear about the research and inspiration behind the story.

O’Farrell is known for her Costa Novel Award-winning *The Hand That First Held Mine* and the memoir *I Am, I Am, I Am*, a Sunday Times bestseller. This event provides a rare opportunity to engage with one of the most celebrated literary voices of her generation in a personal setting.

The evening promises a deep dive into *Land*’s themes of loss, resilience, and identity, set against the stark backdrop of post-famine Ireland.
