Boston’s Four Green Fields Pub & Restaurant is hosting Echo editor Ray O’Hanlon on Saturday, February 26, for a reading of his new novel, “The South Lawn Plot,” an historical thriller set in two centuries and on four continents. The reading, to be followed by a discussion, begins at 7 p.m. and is free to the public.
Bestselling writer Pete Hamill has described “The South Lawn Plot” as a “wonderful work, with a layered, hard-driving narrative, vivid characters, abiding mysteries and the past that has not passed.”
The hardcover is published by Boston-based GemmaMedia which publishes an a range of books including fiction, cultural memoir, journalism, and current affairs.
Four Green Fields, Boston’s newest pub, opened on February 11 and is named for a song by the late Irish ballad singer Tommy Makem. It features a spacious first floor restaurant with an oyster bar, an upstairs lounge named for Irish-American boxing champ John L. Sullivan, and an authentic Irish thatched cottage.
Four Green Fields is at One Boston Place and is just steps away from the Boston Irish Famine Memorial and other local Irish landmarks along the Irish Heritage Trail. For details call (617) 367-4747.
