Show Notes

Season 3 of Fail Harder is brought to you in isolation.   Emma Jane Purcell chats to people at the top of their game about failure – from their first memory of failure to how they cope with it now.   Louise is the bestselling, award winning author of five novels including Asking For It. The New York Times called Asking For It, ‘Riveting and Essential’ and it won several awards including Book of the Year at the 2015 Irish Book Awards. Louise also hosted the RTE 2 documentary ‘Asking For It, Reality Bites’ and the book was adapted for stage and went on to a sold-out run at the Abbey Theatre. Her latest novel After the Silence recently won Crime Novel of the Year at the An Post Irish Book Awards.   But Louise is not here to talk about success – she’s here to talk about failure.   Follow Emma Jane on; Instagram @emmajanepurcell Twitter @emmajanepurcell   Music: Leah Moore   Art: Shane Kelleher
