Caroline Magennis will be launching her latest book Harpy: A Manifesto for Childfree Women (Icon Books, 2023) at the International Anthony Burgess Centre in Manchester on Thursday 9th May at 6pm. The event is now sold out, but Salford staff and students will be given priority on the waiting list for cancellations.

Caroline will be in conversation with Salford’s Emma Barnes to discuss how the book attempts to look beyond the often-divisive conversation around women who choose to be childfree, and instead offers an alternative message of hope and celebration. Please see below for a full press release.

To find out more about the book, please see the publisher’s website here.

This event is co-sponsored by the University of Salford and the Consulate General of Ireland.
