Please join us to discuss The Ha-Ha by Jennifer Dawson. Originally published in 1961, The Ha-Ha follows Josephine as she experiences a breakdown while studying at Oxford and spends the next several months in a mental institution. Influenced by Dawson’s own experience in hospital as both patient and social worker, The Ha-Ha explores mental illness, the sense of belonging, and coming of age.
“Highly original and deeply relatable, The Ha-Ha is a radiant and powerful work that shines an unflinching light on darker places.” - Claire-Louise Bennett
