  • Reading

Join us in Maynooth Community Library for an author visit from Clara Kumagai, who will talk about writing and getting published and share some tips!

Clara Kumagai is from Canada, Japan, and Ireland. Her debut YA novel, Catfish Rolling, blends magical realism with Japanese myth in a story about grief, memory and time. Catfish Rolling was nominated for the YOTO Carnegie Award, a finalist for the Great Reads Award, and was shortlisted for the 2023 KPMG Children’s Books Ireland Awards. Her second novel, Songs for Ghosts, was published in March 2025. She lives and writes in Ireland.
