Hungry: A Biography of my Body is the powerful new memoir from Number One bestselling author Katriona O’Sullivan. It is a beautifully written book that delves into the complexities of body image, self-worth, and the relentless pursuit of acceptance. 

Told with stunning courage and vulnerability, Hungry is both a personal reckoning and a powerful reclaiming of body, voice and self. It is one woman’s story – and a rallying cry for every woman who has ever felt she had to shrink to survive. 

Katriona will be in conversation with Cristín Leach.

Katriona O’Sullivan’s Hungry is a raw, courageous exploration of survival, identity and the lifelong search for self-acceptance. Raised in a home marked by poverty, addiction and abuse, Katriona defied the odds: from teenage motherhood struggling with her own addictions to becoming a university professor and successful author. But beneath the achievements lay a more private struggle – with her body, her worth, and the unrelenting drive to be enough. In this fiercely honest memoir, she interrogates how trauma, class and gender shape the waywomen see themselves – and how society teaches them to measure their value.
