Скачать или смотреть PAUL MURRAY at Charleston Literary Festival 2024

Paul Murray joins us from Ireland to discuss his novel The Bee Sting—a dazzling multi-generational family drama about a wealthy Irish family’s financial ruin. Told from multiple perspectives, we learn of the struggles of adolescence and the devastating effects of secrets—set against concerns of climate change. The Bee Sting was a New York Times top ten Book of the Year for 2023, and has been featured in New Yorker, The Sunday Times, and The Washington Post. According to The Guardian, “It is a tragic-comic triumph. You won’t read a sadder, truer, funnier novel.” Paul Murray is in conversation with Bill Goldstein, author and interviewer with NBC’s Weekend Today.
