As a beloved author herself, Marian is a passionate champion of storytellers everywhere, playing an active role in encouraging new voices. She has been the chair of judges for the Comedy Women in Print prize, a sponsor of the Curtis Brown Creative Novel-Writing Scholarship, and most recently ran her own hugely popular Instagram Live series bringing free creative writing courses to thousands of viewers. Marian also uses her position to raise some of the most challenging issues of our time, including addiction, immigration, depression, domestic violence and the Repeal the Eighth campaign.



Both critically acclaimed and commercially unstoppable, Marian's fifteenth novel, Again, Rachel - the sequel to her groundbreaking novel Rachel's Holiday - was a No. 1 bestseller in four global territories: UK, Ireland, South Africa and New Zealand, and a No. 1 Audible bestseller.



In addition to her novels, Marian has written two collections of journalism, one of which was used as the inspiration of her hit BBC Radio 4 show Between Ourselves. She also co-presents the popular BBC Radio 4 podcast Now You're Asking with actress Tara Flynn, which has been praised by Guardian for its' warm-hearted joy'.



Marian is based in Dún Laoghaire, Dublin.

Reviews

Involving and beautifully told . . . There's a reason why Marian Keyes is the queen of commercial women's fiction
*i Newspaper*

Classic Marian Keyes: a blizzard of wit and wisecracks. Mercilessly funny
*The Times*

There is such a variety of stories and the characters are believable and relatable. She writes funny parts, but then there are those moments that knock you down with sadness
*Libby Page, bestselling author of The Lido, Woman & Home*

An addictive book . . . lust and desire is described brilliantly
*Independent*

The Break races along with Keyes' trademark energy, lightness of touch and plenty of laughs
*Sunday Express*

The Break is Marian Keyes at her funniest, wisest, glorious best

The Break makes me laugh out loud
*Sunday Express*

Breathlessly entertaining
*Connaught Telegraph*

Keyes writes extremely well about modern women. A breezy, candid and deeply felt account of a wife, mother and career woman rediscovering herself
*Metro*

Girl-power at its best. I laughed . . . I cried
*Daily Mail*
