About This Event

Douglas Stuart, author of Booker winner Shuggie Bain and Young Mungo, joins Waterstones Glasgow to launch his third novel, John of John.

Douglas Stuart, author of Booker winner Shuggie Bain and Young Mungo, joins Waterstones Glasgow to launch his third novel, John of John.


In a novel both tender and unflinching, set against the stunning and isolated landscape of Harris, Douglas Stuart continues and deepens his exploration of masculinity and the silent struggle of lives lived under a watchful, judgmental eye. John of John examines the weight of family expectation, the painful compromises people make for love, the lies they tell themselves and one another in order to survive, and the profound cost of a life unlived. Douglas will be talking about the novel before signing copies of his books.
