Julia Armfield: Family Apocalypse

The 2022 novel, Our Wives Under the Sea was a bestseller and won the Polari Book Prize. Now, Julia Armfield is back with Private Rites, a novel set at the end of the world, as three sisters gather to administer their late father’s estate. Haunting and unsettling, yet combined with Armfield’s deadpan wit, this isn’t one to miss. Barry Pierce joins Armfield in conversation.
