"The festival aims to introduce the culture of various countries and will offer creative workshops to children and adults. The program for 2015 is entitled 'Good Criminal Books!' and will present a series of recent literary works, with a particular emphasis on crime novels," the organisers of the festival have stated.
The program will open with a presentation by Jens Lapidus on 18 May, followed by presentations by Kristina Ohlsson and Joakim Zander. Also, popular Swedish and Croatian children's book writers will be promoted, such as Sven Nordqvist, Ulf Stark, Sanja Polak and Sanja Pilic, at creative workshops for children everyday.
One of the stars of the festival will be Turkish journalist and writer Ece Temelkuran.
The Festival, which will take place at the Museum of Arts and Crafts, has been supported by the City of Zagreb, the Croatian Culture Ministry and the Swedish Embassy.
