Thirty years ago yesterday Alistair Gray's masterpiece Lanark was published. I read it only ten years ago and it blew me away. His nightmare vision of a future Glasgow is extraordinary. When will this amazing writer become Scotland's first Nobel Prize Winner for Literature?
The Mitchell Library in Glasgow will be hosting an exhibition. You can see a slideshow about the book at the link below.
