Mary Costello & Han Kang (2015 Event)

'Heartbreaking' and 'packed with emotional intensity' say the reviewers about Mary Costello's stunning debut novel Academy Street, while Han Kang's Man Booker International Prize-winning The Vegetarian is lauded by critics as 'haunting', 'seductive' and 'graceful and vivid'.
