Christine Anne Foley
Christine Anne Foley is thirty-one, lives in Dublin and works in the fashion industry. Her debut literary novel, Bodies, has sold to Publisher Jocasta Hamilton at John Murray, Hachette in a competitive auction.
Dark, subversive and surprising, Bodies confronts the way women’s bodies are treated and the lasting impact of trauma. It’s a novel driven by rage and grief, a yearning for connection and a desire for obliteration. It plays with our ideas of victim and perpetrator and invites us all to think about the way women grow up knowing they need to navigate a society where their body can feel owned by others as much as it is by themselves.
