culture night 2019

'Smart...unsettling...an appallingly tender love story.' New York Times

The Nether is a virtual wonderland that provides total sensory immersion. Just log in, choose an identity and indulge your every desire. But when a young detective uncovers a disturbing brand of entertainment, she triggers an interrogation into the darkest corners of the imagination. Winner of the 2012 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, The Nether is both a serpentine crime drama and haunting sci-fi thriller that explores the consequences of living out our private dreams.

This event was a one-night-only free event for Dublin Culture night; it was read by Mary Murray, Michael Bates, Hillary Dziminski, Jed Murray, Edwin Mullane & Siobhán Callaghan.
