A Love Letter to Friendship with Jackie Kay and Michael Pedersen

“Boy Friends is a love letter to friendship,” said Jackie Kay of Michael Pedersen’s memoir. It’s this notion, the specialness of such relationships, that the duo will dive into at Paisley Book Festival.
Friendship, the threads within, has been a constant presence in the former Makar’s work, as Pedersen’s book captures a lifetime of friendships, some fleeting, some everlasting, others gone too soon. What promises to be a magical hour will invite you to think about the friendships in our own lives, the highs and lows, their impact, and to hold those close to you ever tighter.
