We are pleased to present an evening with American novelist Hanya Yanagihara. Her second novel A Little Life has established her as a major new voice in US fiction. The novel, which is both a dislocating meditation on the trauma of child sexual abuse, and a moving tribute to the possibilities and limitations of adult male friendship and love, was widely greeted as a book of landmark honesty. According to the Atlantic, the novel is “the most ambitious chronicle of the social and emotional lives of gay men to have emerged for many years” – on publication in America. In July 2015, the book was selected as a finalist for the Man Booker Prize.
Read an excerpt from “A Little Life.”
