Life Stories: Non-Fiction

Photograph of the cover of Deborah Levy’s Real Estate and Joan Didion’s Let me tell you what I mean – both covers use shades of red and I am wearing red runners

I have been immersed in fiction and writing but for the next few weeks I am turning my attention to reading about the lives of others in a fab non-fiction selection – I’m almost finished with Solnit’s brilliant memoir.

I will also start into a wonderful collaborative research project with a trip to the archives of the National Library of Ireland. But more on this project later….

Happy Reading to you all!
