 Book Week Scotland

Langside Library are delighted to host Battlefield Writers as they launch their latest book Tales from the Southside.  Tuesday 19th November 2024 at 6pm.

Over thirty writers have contributed short stories, poetry and flash fiction to this anthology, each reflecting life in Glasgow’s southside. Hear readings by a selection of writers and discover how you might become involved in future projects.

This is a free event and is open to everyone. Just turn up on the night

Marco and Alex have a new book out called Dining Tales.

 Dining Tales (sub-titled Savory Stories, Tasty Tales) is a collection of 27 stories told first-hand from some of the giants in Glasgow’s bustling dining scene. Over the past forty years, there has been a revolution in the quality, variety, and choice of restaurants in the city. Dining Tales hears from those who made that revolution: their journey often from humble beginnings, the sheer hard work involved and the fascinating stories behind the scenes.
Above all Dining Tales recounts the commitment, resilience, and the skillset essential to producing successful and much-loved venues that transformed Glasgow’s cuisine.
Whether you love food, eat out regularly or are interested in working in the restaurant business, Dining Tales is a compulsive read.
