Tony Macaulay

    Tony Macaulay, severoírsky autor, čerpá zo svojich skúseností z detstva uprostred „The Troubles“, aby skúmal témy mieru a zmierenia prostredníctvom literatúry. Jeho písanie sa vyznačuje zmesou nostalgie, humoru a prenikavých postrehov o turbulentnej sociálnej histórii Severného Írska. Prostredníctvom svojich memoárov a satirických diel sa zameriava na búranie bariér a podporu dialógu. Jeho diela sú cenené pre svoju úprimnosť a schopnosť vyvolať konverzácie o zložitých spoločenských otázkach.
