Anna Goldreich

Join us at Manningtree Arts for a special evening with Norwich-based author Anna Goldreich, in conversation about her devastating and much-praised debut novel, The Leveret.

Clare and Phoebe move to the countryside hoping a change of scenery might heal them after the loss of their baby daughter — but the quiet of rural life brings its own reckoning. When Clare finds an orphaned leveret in the woods nearby, she takes it in as a strange kind of surrogate, watching it grow wilder and less tameable by the day. What unfolds is an aching, lyrical study of grief, love, and the fictions we build to survive it.

Described as a "triumphant first novel" and praised for its haunting, precise prose, The Leveret has quickly become one of the most talked-about debuts of the year.
