Through conversation and audience questions, the evening will explore themes of friendship, memory, exile and political idealism, reflecting on lives shaped by movement, solidarity and the passage of time. Closely aligned with EPIC’s exploration of the Irish diaspora, the discussion will consider how personal and collective histories intersect across borders, before concluding with a book signing.

Ticket holders should arrive about 10 minutes before 5:30pm at the Visitor Information desk within CHQ. There they will be escorted to the event’s location. We would ask that you arrive no later than 5:35pm, as it’s imperative these events begin on time to ensure the best experience for the author and for our visitors.
