Jo Nesbø

Two weeks ago, the International Literature Festival Dublin offered ‘sheet readers a pair of tickets to an evening with world renowned, slightly unhinged crime writer Jo Nesbø (top) at the RDS Concert Hall, Ballsbridge, Dublin 4 on Friday April 21.

Broadsheet commenter Andyourpointiswhatexactly? wins the tickets with this tribute to Jo:

“I would particularly like tø meet crime writing legend Jo Nesbø because while on maternity leave, I started listening to his audiobooks and they gave me some feeling of sanity and connection to my old life when I used to read books and use my brain. I began to think of Harry Hole as my friend: I’d like to thank Jo for that small relief in a frantic time.”

Thanks all.
