Cauvery Madhavan, Angela Graham and Máire Zepf reflect on how writing can draw on experiences of duality and change, and how literature, in its many forms, becomes a home for identity, inheritance, and connection, in conversation with writer Paul Waters. Cauvery Madhavan was born in India and moved to Ireland 40 years ago. Her novels Paddy Indian and The Uncoupling were published to critical acclaim and The Tainted was chosen by Laureate Sebastian Barry for his Laureate Picks 2020. Her new book, The Inheritance, has been widely hailed as a moving evocation of landscape, history and the human spirit. A very keen golfer and cook, she lives in County Kildare. Angela Graham is the author of the poetry collections Exposure: War, Media, Democracy (2026), Sanctuary, and Star. She won the poetry prize in the inaugural Linen Hall Ulster-Scots Writing Competition. Her short story collection, A City Burning, was longlisted for the Edge Hill Prize. She is also an award-winning producer in documentary and feature film. Máire Zepf is an acclaimed author of 17 books for children, ranging from picture books to YA verse novels.
