The Newer World: An evening with Sebastian Barry acontece a 21 de outubro de 2026, Hope Church Wirral, em Hoylake.
Join us on Wednesday 21st October at 7pm, when we welcome the bestselling, multi award-winning author, Sebastian Barry to the Wirral, to celebrate the publication of his latest novel, The Newer World . Described as 'a masterly work of historical witness and moral reckoning' by the Observer, The Newer World continues to cement Sebastian as one of the finest contemporary novelists at work today. With high praise from Claire Kilroy, Benjamin Wood and Kevin Barry, The Newer World follows the life of Tennyson Bougereau, a freed man, devoted brother, nascent singer, conflicted soldifer and wanted man, as he journeys to find meaning and belonging in the aftermath of the American Civil War. Sebastian will be reading from the book, before being in conversation with Jordan from the bookshop, answering questions from the audience and signing copies of his books. Tickets are £10 standard admission or £25 including a hardback copy of The Newer World . Tickets are non-refundable, but if you can't make the event and would like to reserve a signed/ dedicted copy of the book, please get in touch and we'll be happy to help. We look forward to seeing you there! About Sebastian Barry: Sebastian Barry was born in Dublin in 1955.
