Book Week Scotland: Publishing Scotland non-fiction showcase

Publishing Scotland is delighted to present a digital showcase of fantastic authors and their non-fiction works, including some excellent debuts. Enjoy a fascinating breadth of non-fiction - from memoir to pop culture to nature writing – that just may show you how to look at the world anew.

Our spotlight will shine on: Arusa Qureshi (404 Ink), whose Flip the Script celebrates the women of UK hip hop, poet Nina Mingya Powles (Canongate), whose non-fiction debut Small Bodies of Water won the inaugural Nan Shepherd Prize for nature writing, Linda Gask (Sandstone Press), author of Finding True North, a memoir about recovery and place, Natalie Whittle's The 15-Minute City (Luath Press), which looks at how cities can get better by getting smaller, and Great British Bake Off winner Peter Sawkins, taking readers into the baking delights of his first ever book, Peter Bakes (Black & White).

Each author will share a reading from their work, and answer some questions, all viewable on Youtube. 

This is a digital event as part of Book Week Scotland 2021. Book your free place.
