Norwegian author Alex Dahl will take part in this year’s Manila International Book Fair (MIBF), where she will meet readers and sign copies of her work. The event takes place at the SMX Convention Center from 12–15 September.
Dahl will be featured in an exclusive interview with Christine Carlos on Saturday, 13 September, from 12:15 to 1:15 PM at the Second Floor Stage. She will also hold book-signing sessions at Norway’s booth (2123) on Friday, 12 September, from 1:00 to 2:00 PM, and on Saturday, 13 September, from 10:30 to 11:30 AM and 1:30 to 2:30 PM.
Six of her psychological thrillers — After She’d Gone, Playdate, Cabin Fever, Girl Friends, Boy at the Door, and The Heart Keeper — will be available at the fair and at Fully Booked stores.
Born in Oslo, Alex Dahl is a well-established writer of Nordic Noir. She is often praised for her ability to blend psychological depth with gripping suspense. She holds degrees in linguistics, creative writing, and business management, and has published short stories in both the UK and US.
Her debut novel The Boy at the Door was shortlisted for the UK’s Crime Writers’ Association New Blood Dagger Award in 2018, and she has since been described by Norway’s Dagbladet as a “new star of Nordic noir.” Her books have been translated into multiple languages, bringing contemporary Norwegian crime fiction to readers worldwide.
