Seamus Heaney Homeplace

Tickets £10 Book HERE

Born in Kilmarnock, Graeme Macrae Burnet is among the UK’s leading contemporary novelists, having achieved both critical acclaim and best-selling status around the world.

He is best known for his dazzling Booker-shortlisted second novel, His Bloody Project. He is also the author of two French-set detective novels: The Disappearance of Adele Bedeau and The Accident on the A35. His fourth novel, Case Study, is a fascinating meditation on truth, sanity and the instability of identity. As playful as it is sinister, Case Study blurs the lines between fiction and documentary, reality and dark imagination. Case Study has been shortlisted for the Gordon Burn Prize, the Ned Kelly International Crime Prize and was longlisted for the 2022 Booker Prize.

Graham Macrae Burnet’s inventive style of writing blends gripping stories with compelling characters to create mesmerising page-turners, and promises a great evening of entertainment in the company of Northern Ireland novelist and short story writer Jan Carson.
