What does it mean to raise children in an ecological crisis? New York Times bestselling author Charlotte McConaghy felt the weight of this question while pregnant – and that’s how Wild Dark Shore came into the world.

An eco-thriller set on a storm-lashed island, the novel (longlisted for 2026’s Women’s Prize for Fiction) vibrates with eerie beauty.

Today the author discusses courage and how far we might go for the people, and wildernesses, we love.

Chaired by David Farrier.
