Book Launch: Lazy City by Rachel Connolly

30 August 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

Join us to celebrate the launch of Rachel Connolly’s debut novel, Lazy City, in conversation with Nicole Flattery.

About Lazy City:

Following the death of her best friend, Erin has to get out of London. Returning home to Belfast, an au pair job provides a partial refuge from her grief and her volatile relationship with her mother. Erin spends late nights at the bar where her childhood friend Declan works.

There Erin meets an American academic who is also looking to get lost. Parallel to this she reconnects with an old flame, Mikey. This brings its own web of complications.

With a startlingly fresh and original voice – jarringly funny, cranky, often hungover – Lazy City depicts the strange, meandering aftermath that follows disaster.

About the author:

Rachel Connolly was born in 1993 in Belfast and now lives in London. She has written for the New York TimesNew York Magazine, the Guardian and many other publications. She has also featured as a guest to discuss her work on This American Life and several BBC radio programs.
