Djamel White finishes the #DCUBookClub with his reading recommendations - Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry and Alone in Berlin by Hans Fallada. The Green Road by Anne Enright also gets a special mention as an influence on a key scene in his novel All Them Dogs.

All Them Dogs is set in Djamel White's native West Dublin and tells the story of Tony's attempt to prove himself in the criminal underworld. The Booker judges praised the author for his ear for 'racy and unreal' dialogue and for creating characters that jump off the page. #DCUBookClub
