Siobhan MacGowan
Siobhan MacGowan is a journalist and musician who lived and worked in London for much of her life before returning to Ireland several years ago. She is from a family of great storytellers, the most prominent of which is her brother, Shane MacGowan, of The Pogues.
Siobhan’s debut novel, The Trial of Lotta Rae, is a sweeping and heart-breaking historical novel set in London in the early 1900’s, but concerns issues and themes that are still strikingly pertinent today.
It published in May 2022, to excellent reviews.
