World Book Day - Thursday 5 March

The City Chapter, the partnership of libraries in Armagh, will host an evening event to promote the spoken and written word, and celebrate World Book Day, on Thursday 5 March 2015 at 7.30pm in Armagh Public Library, Abbey Street.

The speaker will be Dr Sophia Hillan whose talk, entitled ‘Reading into Writing', will include readings from her own work. Formerly Assistant Director of Queen's University's Institute of Irish Studies, Sophia has returned to her first love - fiction. Her first novel, ‘The Friday Tree', set in Belfast in 1955, was published in 2014 by Ward River Press, Dublin and her new novel, ‘The Way We Danced', will be published by the same press later this year.
