Between the Red Lines, a spin-off series of events from the Red Line Book Festival brings you a brand-new programme of Irish voices this February.

This programme is brought to you by organisers of The Red Line Book Festival and South Dublin Libraries and Arts. Events will take place over seven days to coincide with the Ireland Reads campaign – a new national day to celebrate reading.

Between the Red Lines is a brand new concept that aims to share Irish books– hot off the press and perspectives from Irish writers; connecting them with readers here in Ireland and around the world and encouraging more people to get reading. The campaign will run throughout February, to coincide with Ireland Reads on February 25th, during the Between the Red Lines series.

Festival voices this year include: acclaimed novelist, Marita Conlon McKenna, previous Red Line Book Festival Writer-in-Residence and award-winning writer Lisa Harding, journalist and writer, Manchán Mangan, Patricia Forde, Annemarie Ni Churreáin and John Patrick McHugh among others.
