About this listen

Anne Bonny is a young woman of privilege who is anything but comfortable, hell-bent on a voyage of self-realisation with or without the consent of those around her. Novelty-seeking, contrary, stubborn and bisexual, she is also neurodivergent, brave and capable of deep and enduring love.

She spent all of two months actually being a pirate. Seaborne is the thrilling and sensuous imagining of the loss, frustration and desires that steer this lonely daughter of a plantation owner towards elopement, two marriages, two pregnancies, violence, trial for piracy and legendary status.

Critic reviews

'SEABORNE is a rollicking triumph of passion, and a powerful portrayal of Irish pirate, Anne Bonny – a true original. Faultless in tone ... a wonderfully rendered reimagining of a great historical figure, and confirms (what I already knew) that O’Connor is one of Ireland’s leading historical novelists.' (Elaine Feeney, award-winning author of As You Were)

A stunning novel!

A wonderful story, passionate and moving, and brought to vivid life by Nuala O'Connor's gorgeous prose. Anne Bonny, maverick, bisexual, neurodivergent, and pirate, strides across two decades of the 1700's, from Ireland to the Carolinas to the Caribbean, to the wild and welcoming sea, and shows us that there is little more important than being true to ourselves, and being true to those who love and honour us.

This is a truly magnificent novel by a writer at the height of her powers!
