If you read and loved Shuggie Bain or Young Mungo, you’ll not want to miss our event with Booker-prize winning author Douglas Stuart on Thursday 28 May at Newcastle’s Tyneside Cinema.

Douglas Stuart will be chatting about his highly anticipated new novel, John of John – a tender and unflinching exploration of masculinity, sexuality and the silent struggle of unspoken desires in a controlling Presbyterian community on the Isle of Harris.

And the Glasgow-born writer will be in conversation with none other than bestselling Scottish crime author Val McDermid – we can’t wait for this pairing!

There will be book sales from Forum Books at the event, including the chance to grab a copy of John of John and meet Douglas to get your books signed.

This event is part of our Right to Read programme, bringing world-class authors right here to Newcastle to celebrate the National Year of Reading.
