Tessa Hadley: Free Love in Conversation with Colm Tóibín

Feb 15, 2022


She was pleased with her life. The year was 1967.

Tessa Hadley discusses her new novel, Free Love, about a woman’s intellectual and sexual awakening in 1960s London, with Colm Tóibín.

Free Love is beautifully structured and brilliantly paced. It displays Tessa Hadley’s extraordinary skill at making both surface life and deep interiors come fully alive,” wrote Tóibín. “Phyllis Fischer’s quest for love and escape is created with drama and excitement, but also with slow care and real delicacy and sympathy.”
