Irvine Welsh with Ewan Morrison

We’re thrilled to welcome the Leith legend of Trainspotting fame Irvine Welsh to Paisley to talk about his writing career, his passion for music, and the latest instalment in his recent crime series. Resolution is a gritty, gut punching narrative that follows the failing attempts of an Edinburgh investigator to start life afresh on the South coast, one which confirms Welsh’s reputation as an orator of modern life. Joining him to chair this event is another writer who projects our darkest fears onto paper, Ewan Morrison, whose latest novel, For Emma, is a Big Tech thriller which leaves a father desperately searching for answers after his daughter is killed in an AI experiment. Don’t miss this timely conversation between two like-minded Scottish writers at the top of their game, whose shared preoccupation with the haunting past and the fearful future helps us better understand the lives we’re living now.
