Aye Write 2018, Jon McGregor introduces…Chris Power & Chris McQueer
18th Mar 2018 8:15PM – 9:15PM
Mitchell Library, North Street, Glasgow G3 7DN
Jon McGregor introduces new writers Chris Power & Chris McQueer
The prize-winning novelist will be introducing another two debut writers, this time with collections of short stories:
Chris Power’s stories are peopled by men and women who find themselves at crossroads or dead ends. Each story in his debut collection Mothers lays bare the emotional and psychic damage of life, love and abandonment.
From the streets of working class Scotland, and on occasion, a little beyond our solar system, comes Hings, the debut collection from Chris McQueer. Putting surreal and witty twists on the everyday, Chris creates recognisable characters you will love and want to avoid like the plague.
