Mayflies: An Evening with Andrew O'Hagan

Join us for an evening with author Andrew O'Hagan! Craig Smillie will lead the conversation, paying particular attention to O'Hagan's latest book, Mayflies; an incredible story that charts a weekend of youthful excess in 1980s Manchester and the aftermath thirty years later. There will also be an opportunity for the audience to ask questions and engage in the discussion.

Andrew O'Hagan is one of his generation's most exciting and most serious chroniclers of contemporary Britain. Following two previous nominations, his novel The Illuminations was longlisted for the 2015 Man Booker Prize. He was voted one of Granta's Best of Young British Novelists in 2003. He has won the Los Angeles Times Book Award and the E. M. Forster Award from the American Academy of Arts & Letters. He lives in London.
