Author John Boyne's recent book, All the Broken Places, is a powerful sequel to his bestselling work, The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas. The narrative is a devastating yet poignant account of a woman who must confront the transgressions of her past, and a present in which it is never too late for courage and redemption. In conversation with literary critic and writer Merve Emre, Boyne discusses the tragedies of the past and the inevitable shadows they cast upon the future.

John Boyne is the author of twenty-two books, including the global bestsellers The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas and The Heart’s Invisible Furies. His most recent novel, Water, was published in November. His novels are published in sixty languages, making him the most translated Irish author of all time.
