<p><b>'Gorgeous, immersive... both epic and intimate, funny and wise' Roisín O'Donnell</b><br><b>'Moving, thought-provoking, and utterly delightful' Elif Batuman</b> <br><b>'Took me back to the way I felt when reading </b><i><b>Normal People</b></i><b>' </b><i><b>Stylist</b></i><br><b>'A sexy, sprawling epic' </b><i><b>Glamour</b></i><br><b>A BBC Culture Pick for 2026</b></p><p><i>'You could probably run cities on the energy generated between directors like him and actresses like her'</i><br><br>When Frida Slattery and John Reddan meet in a Dublin pub in 2005, neither can imagine how they will come to shape and define each other's lives.</p><p>Frida is struggling to launch her acting career, while John is already gaining a name for himself as a director. From the first they see in each other potential and the chance to create work that matters, though the lines between collaboration and exploitation, friendship and desire will prove dangerously slippery.</p><p>With the financial crisis looming, the next 16 years takes them from Dublin to London, via New York and LA, and through success and disappointment, joy and heartbreak. Their connection is tested and stretched to the point of rupture, but something remains that outlasts both their work and their own shifting perceptions.</p><p>FRIDA SLATTERY AS HERSELF is an unforgettable story of love, artistic collaboration, and two people coming of age, together and apart.</p><p><b>Readers are loving FRIDA SLATTERY</b></p><p><b>'Totally riveting. A propulsive and compelling story of love, collaboration and all its complexities'</b></p><p><b>'Funny and wise with so many interesting ideas about relationships and making art and growing up.

These characters feel so real - they are raw, frustrating, flawed, and addictive!'</b></p><p>'An absorbing, wise and honest read... I'll be recommending it to
