Catherine Airey grew up in England in a family of mixed Irish and English descent, and now lives in County Cork. Confessions<\/em><\/a> is her first novel. It was published by Viking on 23 January. You can also find Confessions<\/em> on the Suffolk Community Libraries catalogue<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What was your first introduction to books and reading? Were you surrounded by books as you were growing up or did you visit a library?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve always loved reading. As a child, I went to the library every week and maxed out my sisters\u2019 cards as well as my own. My dad is a big reader too, so there were lots of books around the house. Neither of my parents pressed books into my hands, though. I\u2019m really grateful that I was free to choose what I wanted to read.<\/p>\n

I can still remember some of my favourite books I got from the library as a child. River Boy<\/em><\/a> by Tim Bowler and Dr Franklin\u2019s Island<\/em> by Ann Halam. I also loved anything by Michael Morpurgo, and was particularly haunted by Out of the Ashes<\/em><\/a>, which is about the 2001 Foot and Mouth epidemic. When I got a bit older, I\u2019d sneak into the adult section and hide these books between the children\u2019s ones, worried that the librarian would tell me that they weren\u2019t appropriate. They never did, though!<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

You gave up your job in London and (literally) got on your bike to head for Co. Cork to write a novel. How did that come about?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019d made the decision that I wanted to go to Ireland during the Covid lockdowns, which meant I had to wait a while before I could go. I was very attached to my bike in London, especially at this time. I spent about five minutes looking into taking a bike on a plane, but it seemed too complicated. The idea formed after that. I\u2019m quite impulsive, and I like a challenge. It was very satisfying, cycling the whole way (except for over the sea, of course). I actually cycled on to the ferry itself, which was a wonderful moment. We\u2019d always taken the ferry when visiting Ireland when I was a child, and it\u2019s how my grandma first came to the UK in the 1940s.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

What is your writing routine?<\/strong><\/p>\n

For Confessions, I was quite strict with myself, writing 1,000 words a day. I didn\u2019t really have a plan, so I had to do a lot of retroactive planning and re-writing, but committing to getting those words down each day (even if they were terrible) was what pushed me through. I actually do most of my writing on my laptop in bed! Maybe because I\u2019d spent eight years doing office jobs at a desk. I didn\u2019t have the luxury of a special writing room with a nice view. I was doing volunteer work at the time and staying in a small ground-floor room that could fit a single bed in it and not much else. But even now I still write mostly horizontally.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Can you tell us a little about your new novel Confessions<\/strong><\/em><\/a>?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Confessions<\/em> follows three generations of Irish women, from the 1970s to the present day. The story is set very much in the real world, as ordinary lives are changed by historical moments (from 9\/11 to the fight for reproductive rights in Ireland). At its core is the relationship between two sisters, Maire and Roisin, and the very different lives they lead, separated by the Atlantic Ocean. It\u2019s also a bit of a mystery novel, with lots of secrets to uncover and exploring the impact these kinds of secrets have on future generations.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Any book which starts with ‘Two days after she disappeared, most of my mother’s body washed up in Flushing Creek’ demands attention. Am I right in thinking you did not plan it to any great degree but wrote it as it came to you with the different voices and viewpoints?<\/strong><\/p>\n

You are right. I didn\u2019t have a big glittering idea for a novel, but waiting around for an idea to come was making me quite unhappy. I just had to do it. The first section of the novel was the one I wrote first. When I got stuck, it was because I felt I needed to know more about what had come before. So I started writing about Cora\u2019s parents, their childhoods back in Ireland. I was writing these bits originally just for myself, but it dawned on me that they had stories to tell, as well.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Which current writers do you admire?<\/strong><\/p>\n

So many! I read a lot of contemporary fiction. My favourites are probably Jonathan Franzen and Ali Smith, for very different reasons. This year, the novel I admired the most was Girl in the Making<\/em> by Anna Fitzgerald. It\u2019s told through the eyes of a girl called Jean as she grows up in the Dublin suburbs in the 60s and 70s. In the first chapter, she is three, and the language and style develop as she does. Theres a scene quite near the beginning where Jean is watching TV on her own which I still think about all the time. Being a child is such a raw, confusing experience which we mostly just forget. I\u2019ve not read anything else that captures this aspect of childhood so well.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

What’s next for you?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m writing my second novel, which I\u2019m finding quite difficult. This time, I actually did get a glittering idea, which involves a lot of research and planning. So it feels very different to when I was writing Confessions. Most of the time I\u2019m excited by the new challenge, but I have many moments where I worry that I won\u2019t be able to make it work, ironically because I have more of an idea of what needs to happen.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

One book you wish you had written?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Time Traveler\u2019s Wife<\/em><\/a> by Audrey Niffenegger. It\u2019s an all-time favourite of mine. I first picked it up when I was about sixteen (from the library), and I\u2019ve re-read it many times, always surprised again by how much I still love it. When I was younger, I was totally enchanted by the love story and the time travelling. Then I was dazzled by the feat of its structure. Now it\u2019s the level of granular detail I\u2019m so impressed by. The Chicago setting, the way it connects to the culture of the time. It has everything.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

You worked for Penguin Random House Children’s in the rights section. What is it like being on the other side of the table?<\/strong><\/p>\n

That was my first job after I finished university, but I wasn\u2019t there for very long (about a year). Honestly, I wanted to be working in editorial, and secretly I really wanted to be actually writing books, not editing them. I did learn a lot from the process though which has been quite useful in terms of having a basic understanding of what publishers actually do between acquiring a manuscript and the book being released. There\u2019s a long wait for the author (in my case nearly two years), and knowing a bit about the process helped soothe some of my nerves.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Can you tell us one thing about yourself that your readers would not know?<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the spirit of it being important not to harbour too many secrets (a theme in Confessions<\/em>), I\u2019ll tell you about the first book I ever wrote when I was seven years old. It was a zig-zag book I made at school called Henrietta the Very Hairy Hippo. The secret is that I stole the story from an episode of 64 Zoo Lane. I felt very ashamed about this especially as I was picked to read the story out in Good Work Assembly. I was sure someone in the audience was going to call me out and call me a cheat. But they didn\u2019t, and I felt terrible about it for years.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
