Few and Far Between: The Anatomy of a Novel with Jan Carson

EastSide Visitor Centre · 402 Newtownards Road, Belfast BT4 1HH

Sunday 2 August · 2pm

Few and Far Between: The Anatomy of a Novel with Jan Carson: event image at EastSide Visitor Centre

About

In this illustrated talk, Belfast-based writer Jan Carson will dissect her recently published novel Few and Far Between, an alternative history of what might have happened if Terence O’Neill had followed through with his outlandish plan to drain Lough Neagh and turn it into the seventh county of Northern Ireland. A masterclass in bringing a novel to life and ensuring it does justice to the sum of its parts. This session will include an opportunity to ask Jan any questions you might have.
