Spring is here(!) and we begin our new season with global phenomenon Marian Keyes. Marian is one of Ireland’s most prolific and successful writers of all time with her books having sold over 35 million copies worldwide. Marian has won multiple awards and is an expert in honest storytelling. She writes characters you’ll love with imperfections you’ll recognise and her wisdom is felt in every story she tells.  In this refreshing, funny and unfiltered conversation, Marian discusses her upbringing in Ireland and how this affected her aspirations in life, her experience of addiction in her 20s, the monumental change of becoming sober, especially when it comes to love and self acceptance, being 60, a woman’s right to enjoy sex and and ultimately why she refuses to hide or lie about anything (hello botox).  How lucky we are to have Marian Keyes in the world!  Marian’s new book ‘My Favourite Mistake’ is available to buy now. https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/316031/my-favourite-mistake-by-keyes-marian/9780241441145 GET IN TOUCH Contact us at [email protected] with your emails and voice notes.
