We are delighted to offer livestream tickets to Philippe Sands & Juan Gabriel Vásquez | Light in Dark Places Sat 22 Nov 2025 | 10:00am – 11:15am.

An unmissable conversation between two writers and friends, whose latest books explore the devastating forces that turned the world upside down and created the one we now inhabit. For Philippe Sands it’s Augusto Pinochet in Chile, while Juan Gabriel Vásquez takes the reader through major upheavals including the guerrilla movements in 1960s Latin America. Together they address the question: can literature play a more profound role than a court in delivering justice?

Join these outstanding writers for an enthralling exploration of chilling historic events. Sands’ gripping story blends personal memoir, historic detective work and courtroom drama to unfurl a twin portrait of a pair of mass murderers. Retrospective by Vásquez reveals the story of one man and his family — based on real people and events — and a devastating portrait of the forces that shaped their lives, and for half a century turned the world upside down.

This event application is for livestreamed tickets only.
