Bronagh Curran is an Irish writer of women’s fiction with a speculative edge. She also takes any opportunity to inject some Irish history and feminist agendas into her stories.
Her debut adult novel The Good Activist was published by independent Irish publisher Merdog Books in 2022. In 2016 the Dutch rights of her Young Adult novel The Path of Totality were sold and published as In Het Spoor Van de Eclips by Gottmer. Her YA writing has been shortlisted for the Searchlight Writing Award and the Acheven Book Prize.
Having started her career in print journalism, Bronagh swapped deadlines for dog leads to set up her own dog walking service. But when the Celtic Tiger died people started walking their own dogs again so Bronagh turned her hand to various jobs from childminding to craft teaching before settling down as a medical administrator. Raised in the small town of Oldcastle Co Meath, she spent two decades flat hopping in Dublin before making the move to Kilkenny City, where she hopes to stay. If only so she can build up a bookshelf that she doesn’t have to donate to the charity shop again.
