48. Sharon Dempsey in conversation with Lucy Cullen (15 February 2024)

In her conversation with Lucy Cullen, Sharon Dempsey reads from and discusses her novel Who Took Eden Mulligan? (2021). She also talks about how her critical work as a PhD candidate influences her creative work; how crime fiction is the best genre to deal with unresolved issues from the past, and to negotiate class and gender inequalities – in general, and in Northern Ireland in particular; how she often draws on tropes from other genres, such as horror and the gothic; and how the choice of form really depends on the theme of the story.
