Aye Write! Glasgow’s fabulous book festival returns – 15 – 25 March, 2018

Among the authors appearing at Aye Write! Book Festival 2018 are a pre-festivals return to Glasgow for Ruby Wax before Sir Chris Bonington, Peggy Seeger, Baroness Sayeeda Warsi, Robert Peston, Maggie O’ Farrell, Val McDermid, Brett Anderson, Professor A.C. Grayling, Evan Davis, Shami Chakrabarti, Graeme Obree, all discuss their latest work and Neil MacGregor, formerly director of the British Museum gives the Tannahill Lecture. Composer Sir James MacMillan, Lawyer Aamer Anwar, Scotland’s Makar Jackie Kay and Dr Adele Patrick all discuss “The books that made me”.
