Why are we so drawn to true crime? And what are the ethical stakes behind the stories? Join popular literature experts Clare Clarke and Bernice Murphy, novelist and short-story writer Una Mannion (School of English), and Ailise Bulfin (UCD), whose research focuses on cultural representations of major social issues, for a discussion on the moral complexities of creating and consuming true crime narratives.
Bring your own thoughts, the audience is part of the conversation.
