Jenny Offill

MLF and Granta are delighted to present a rare UK event with critically acclaimed U.S writer Jenny Offill. A creative writing tutor at Columbia University, Offill is the author of Dept. of Speculation and Last Things. Shortlisted for the 2015 Folio Prize, Dept. Of Speculation is an intensely funny and electrifying account of marriage and motherhood, love and madness. The Guardian, Observer, Daily Telegraph, TLS and New York Times all championed it as one of their Books of The Year and the Irish Times called it ‘a masterpiece… brilliant, breathtaking and thought-provoking.’ Offill will be in conversation with MLF’s Kate Feld.
