Tom Doig in conversation with Tony Wheeler at the Melbourne Writers' Festival
... I should probably say, Tony Wheeler in conversation with [some guy] at the Melbourne Writers' Festival on Wed 28 August.
Tony has just written a new book, called Tony Wheeler's Dark Lands, in which he recounts his experiences in Congo DRC, Colombia, Haiti, Nauru, Pakistan, Palestine-Israel, Papua New Guinea and Zimbabwe. I have the privilege of asking him some probing, journalistically rigorous questions about his flirtations with atrocity tourism. (Note to self: "Tony ... you're a legend!" = not a question.)
