Roddy Doyle will be joining us from Ireland for a discussion over Zoom of his brilliant trilogy on Paula Spencer, starting with The Women Who Walked Into Doors, then to Paula Spencer, and right up to this year's The Women Behind the Door. The latest novel is a devastating and spot-on examination of domestic abuse's impact on the mother and daughter relationship.

Paula Spencer is the character I’m most proud of. I met a group of women who’d been in violent relationships, years ago - when The Women first came out.  They’d all read the book, and one of them said: ‘How did you get inside my fuckin’ head?’  It’s the best review I ever got.” —Roddy Doyle in a 2019 letter to Patrisha McLean, CEO and Founder of Finding Our Voices
