Emiliano Monge and Tommy Wieringa at International Literature Festival Dublin

Join award winning authors Emiliano Monge and Tommy Wieringa in conversation with Paula Shields at the International Literature Festival Dublin to discuss the ugly realities of migration.

Described in The Observer as an ‘intense contemporary thriller of multiple exploitations’, Tommy Wieringa’s latest book, The Death of Murat Idrissi, translated from Dutch by Sam Garrett, traces how a wrong turn leads to disaster for two adventurous European women in Morocco. Written in high voltage prose, Among The Lost by Emiliano Monge, translated from Spanish by Frank Wynne, follows a single day in which people are trafficked and brutalised and illegal migrants are cheated of money and dreams even as countless others scrabble to cross the border.

The event will be chaired by RTÉ's Paula Shields and will be held at Smock Alley Theatre during Dublin's International Literature Festival on Sunday 19 May. Ticket prices are €10-12.
