Sometimes
you’ve got to laugh your way through life, and there’s no finer vessel than
Scottish humour. We bring together two authors who, across their fiction and
non-fiction, rip up the notion that tough times equates to unbridled misery,
and that laughter can be found.
Kirkland Ciccone's Sadie, Call the Polis is an offbeat story of a Scottish
family as seen through the eyes of the indomitable Sadie Rash, who we follow
from childhood to adulthood, while Carrie Marshall’s memoir Carrie Kills A Man
explores how a trans rock singer killed a depressed suburban dad in its frank
and fearless glory.
Both authors will dive into their work, and - dare we say - crack a joke or two
about life along the way.
