Irish novelist Paul Murray and American author Bryan Washington have penned two of the best ghost stories, of sorts, in living memory.
Murray’s The Bee Sting is a sprawling tragicomedy of a family haunted by the ghosts of past trauma. Washington’s tender exploration of lust, love and grief, Family Meal, features the spectre of a lost lover and the phantoms of opportunities ignored.
They share the stage to discuss their novels’ shared interest in real and figurative ghosts in conversation with Toni Jordan.
