Katriona O'Sullivan is one of our greatest writers

Eason will host an unforgettable ‘In Conversation’ event with Katriona O’Sullivan at the National Concert Hall on Wednesday, April 22nd.

This special evening will celebrate the launch of her raw, courageous, and deeply moving new memoir, Hungry.

Hungry offers a fierce exploration of survival, identity, and the lifelong search for self-acceptance. Katriona O’Sullivan’s unflinching account traces her journey from a home marked by poverty, addiction, and abuse to defying overwhelming odds. From becoming a teenage mother while battling her own addictions, she rose to the esteemed role of university professor and acclaimed author. Yet, behind every public achievement lay a private struggle with her body, her sense of worth, and the relentless pressure to be “enough.”

In this powerful book, O’Sullivan examines how trauma, class, and gender profoundly shape the way women perceive themselves, and how society teaches them to measure their value. Hungry is both a profound personal reckoning and a powerful reclaiming of body, voice, and self – a singular woman’s story that serves as a rallying cry for every woman who has ever felt compelled to shrink to survive.

This will undoubtedly be a compelling and thought-provoking evening as Katriona O’Sullivan shares insights into her extraordinary life and the universal themes explored in her highly anticipated memoir.
