Description

Winner of the 2023 Woven Voices Prize

Who do you blame? The woman, the gun, or politics?

Berker travels from Britain to Turkey to meet his estranged father, but it’s too late: his sister Elif informs him that their Baba has already died. A family reunion becomes an exhilarating whodunnit investigation as Berker discovers the truth about his roots, grieves for a man he will never truly know, and accidentally unravels a conspiracy that goes to the heart of global politics.

Featuring British spies, Turkish soldiers, and London’s kebab shops, Aaron Kilercioglu’s The EU Killed My Dad is the winner of the Woven Voices Prize 2023 and an inventive, fast-paced exploration of identity, belonging, and history spanning five decades. Aaron's previous award-winning work includes the sell-out hit For a Palestinian, which has been seen at Bristol Old Vic, the Camden People’s Theatre, and Underbelly.

This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere at London's Jermyn Street Theatre in January 2024.
