Congratulations to @seanluskauthor.bsky.social on winning Fiction Book of the Year at this year's #SaltireBookAwards! 🥳✒️😍

Oo — just remembered that Sean Lusk’s A Woman of Opinion won fiction book of the year in the #SaltireBookAwards two days ago, which is your reminder to read this brilliant book.

I'm back in the office after visits to Glasgow and Edinburgh, and a fab night celebrating the best of Scottish Literature at the #saltirebookawards where @mikkibrock.bsky.social's Plagues of the Heart was a shortlisted research book of the year. Congrats to all the winners and shortlisted authors.

Thanks to The Saltire Book Awards for a fantastic night!

It was a real pleasure to hear such high and well deserved praise for Mikki Brock's 'Plagues of the Heart' (we loved this beautiful illustration in the awards programme).

The judges pronounced it, "a landmark text across multiple disciplines." #SaltireBookAwards

Two very different books for me .....
old: Greenvoe (1972), by George Mackay Brown (1921 - 1996)
recent: Night Train to Odesa (2024), by Jen Stout which has just won the #SaltireBookAwards First Book Award.

So happy to see this, although I’m still filled with sadness at losing John.

'A tremendously good, mature, sustained volume, exploring ageing, mortality, environmental crisis and wellbeing, mourning that which is lost while recognising hope' #SaltireBookAwards
