You are welcome to browse the various pages of the Joseph Connolly Website. Pretty much all the relevant information is here – but the real point of all authors is, of course, just the books (and in particular the novels). It is hoped that these are what you will read next.

Outside the library in the Victoria & Albert Museum are two glass display cases featuring archive material from Faber and Faber's eighty year history.

In 2009, Joseph Connolly was appointed restaurant reviewer for the weekly London newspaper The Hampstead & Highgate Express (Ham & High). Please see the new section in this website which carries all the reviews to date, and will be regularly updated as each new review appears.
