Episode 37 - Louise O'Neill
Manage episode 105969606 series 86113
Louise O'Neill's debut novel, 'Only ever yours', was published in 2014. Her second book, 'Asking for it', was launched last month and has garnered rave reviews and feedback in the short time since. 'Brave, clever, provocative but relentless', said the Irish Times, while the Guardian said, ‘This may only be her second book, but it’s clear that O’Neill is blazing her own path in literature’. Both books go beyond traditional story-telling, carrying messages that will resonate with readers, and start important conversations. I caught up with Louise just before the launch of 'Asking for it'. We discussed her life as a writer and how the stories came to be, her process, the personal side of both books and the impact on her as an author and lots more. She was very open and honest about it all, and it was fun to chat to her. I hope you enjoy the show. You can follow Louise on Twitter @oneillo
