A WEEK TODAY!

Just spoke to my mum after 4 months, since she left Jabalia to Khan Younis. I am the happiest and saddest person at the same time. I want to hide somewhere and just cry. How can this be allowed? A woman of her age, so tired and ill, in a tent somewhere with hardly any support?

Huge congratulations to Sinéad Gleeson on this smart and inspiring book about what it is to be an artist. 👏👏👏👏

Thanks so much to Dr Mary McGill (and RTE Arena) for this review of Hagstone. rte.ie/radio/radio1/c… 4th Estate Books Cormac Kinsella

Well played, Dubray (love the cut-out figure on the cliffs from the cover)

The audiobook of Hagstone is also released today, read by the brilliant Tara Flynn. Audible UK 🎧 audible.co.uk/pd/Hagstone-Au…

Happiest of publication nights to Sinéad Gleeson the literary doula of so many Irish writer’s hopes and dreams. Her debut novel, #Hagstome is a riveting read, an Irish Doris Lessing… Another one to join the #RIOS (read in one sitting) list 👏📚

So sad I couldn’t make this tonight. Sinéad Gleeson is brilliant and so is the book. There is no more supportive person in Irish writing. 💗

Congratulations to Sinéad Gleeson on the Hodges Figges launch of her debut novel Hagstone, a celebration of what it is to be an artist and of female solidarity, two qualities in which she is an expert and a shining example. A beautiful launch by Kishani Widyaratna & Louise Kennedy

Phenomenal launch Hodges Figgis this evening of Sinéad Gleeson’s gorgeous debut novel #Hagstone 4th Estate Books w/ Kishani Widyaratna & Louise Kennedy - Sinéad, also renowned her advocacy, her solidarity, announced a fundraiser for her friend, a Palestinian writer.

Launching tomorrow at warp factor speed is this debut novel by Sinéad Gleeson

Easily the best work of fiction (or is it?) I have read in a very long time, with sentences to admire and linger on.

High five to the author and high recommend to everyone else.

'Gleeson’s writing is like a punch to the gut – in the best way possible. With each page, she brings the landscape to life in vivid Technicolor'

Glowing praise in the Irish Independent for HAGSTONE by Sinéad Gleeson, out Thursday! 🌊
