An Evening with Marian Keyes
Marian Keyes has a rare gift for making readers laugh, cry, and fall in love with her relatable characters. Now, she invites you into her world to explore her remarkable life and career.
About An Evening with Marian Keyes
The queen of the most widely loved, genre-defying novels including Rachel’s Holiday, Anybody Out There and Grown Ups will take to the stage to reveal stories from her early days, to becoming a multi-million copy bestselling author and literary icon whose novels have spanned generations.
Delving into the experiences that have shaped her writing, Marian will reflect on everything from love and relationships to humour, making mistakes and resilience, and her dedication to championing new voices in literature.
As she turns 60, Marian will also talk about the joy of embracing new things and an overall refreshed approach to life.
To celebrate the paperback release of her sixteenth novel My Favourite Mistake, Marian will unpack her latest love story and what happens when high-flyer Anna swaps New York’s skyscrapers for the rugged Irish coast.
As Marian introduces a wonderful cast of new characters to fall in love with, she’ll also shed light on the novel’s themes including midlife lessons, friendship break-ups, letting go of mistakes, regret, and perceiving yourself differently. Expect laughter, heartfelt moments, and inspiring storytelling that showcases Marian’s fearless honesty, warmth and wit for an uplifting evening with one of the most beloved voices in fiction today.
“My Favourite Mistake is, among other things, a love story. In fact, it’s several love stories. Set in a beautiful place. About flawed people trying their best. It’s funny and hopeful, comforting and fun.”
