Manchester Literature Festival presents Hernan Diaz
See Pulitzer Prize-winning author Hernan Diaz (Trust) discuss his brilliant new novel Ply. Set centuries from now, Ply follows an orphan in a city on the brink of profound change, drawn into an underground world of art, music and risk – and a discovery that could reshape reality. A novel of ideas built from a story of people, it blends Dickensian odyssey, family drama and scientific thriller to explore selfhood, connection and the distance between us and those we love.
Recently featured on Dua Lipa’s Service95 Book Club, Hernan Diaz’s work continues to inspire readers worldwide. Don’t miss this unforgettable conversation with one of contemporary fiction’s most visionary voices.
A Manchester Literature Festival event supported by Library Live.
