In 2015, Anne Enright was appointed as the inaugural Laureate of Irish Fiction. ‘It’s great to have Ireland to write about,’ she said, ‘It’s a great resource.’ The appointment recognised Enright’s status as a chronicler of the times, of the complex lives of regular people and of women in particular.
Join Enright as she speaks to Louise Kennedy about her life’s work and finding inspiration in Ireland.
