Join Craig A Smith on Friday 2nd May at 7pm, as he chats to Doug Johnstone about his life-spanning epic novel about death and new beginnings,The River. There’s a saying, beloved of Scottish grannies: “Whit’s fur ye will no’ go by ye.” Seemingly embracing this maxim, Lachlan McCormack lives his life as aimless as a piece of driftwood, but somehow gets to where he always wanted to be – where the river meets the sea. The novel is a love story, both to his childhood sweetheart, and to Scotland, and follows Lachlan’s journey through seven decades of the nation’s political, sporting and cultural history (and disappointments). Along the way, it appears that only death has the power to propel him onward, and the novel revisits the seven significant deaths that have shaped him and mapped his journey. It explores the cyclical nature of life, love, happiness, and Scotland’s ongoing struggle with its place in the world. - Doors: 6.30pm, event starts: 7pm, please arrive early to secure a good seat. Tickets are £3and there is a Ticket & Book option which includes a signed copy of The River. The bookshop has level access, events are seated and speakers use microphones.
