This summer the audience is invited to join us at the poolside in TROPEZ for a series of readings and poolside chats with writers, poets and artists. Literature has the means to help us escape, reimagine the world anew, or offer bold new ways to engage with the world. It's empathy building. It's also fun. Between weekly live readings and interactions with the Tropez live webcam, BDP and TROPEZ produce Empathy When - the Tropez Writing Podcast! We will be recording our guests Dani Arbid, Samantha Bohatsch, Alan Murrin, Musa Okwonga, Mitch Speed, Elif Saydam, Jasmine Reimer, Adam Fearon und Anna Szaflarski for the public to enjoy, socially distanced storytelling!

For the second edition we will be joined on the terrace by Alan Murrin, an Irish fiction writer based in Berlin. His writing was published in Literally Speaking Berlin 2019, and The Sacred Exists to be Found. Murrin has been short-listed for the Irish Arts and Writers Festival short story prize and the New Irish Writing in Germany Prize.
