Patrick Ryan’s astonishing debut novel Buckeye earned him comparisons to J D Salinger and William Faulkner – and highest praise from his close friend Ann Patchett, who chairs this special event. Set in a small Ohio town, the novel traces the far-reaching consequences of a stolen moment of passion as they ripple through generations shaped by war, grief, and longing. This unforgettable conversation will explore intimacy, secrecy, forgiveness, desire, and writing lives entangled by history.
