John Dean – Crime Writer

Discuss the dramatic changes in the world of communication and it will not be long before the name Elon Musk is mentioned. Now, that debate is being taken to the forthcoming Kirkcudbrigh Book Festival, which will host a talk about the controversial American entrepreneur on the event’s final afternoon (Sunday March 8).

The talk about the man behind X, formerly Twitter, and many more innovations, everything from electric cars to space travel, as well as contentious interventions in American politics, will be delivered by Darryl Cunningham, author of Elon Musk: American Oligarch.

Known as a writer/cartoonist on an array of diverse subjects that include mental health, economics, science, and politics, the Yorkshire based author also wrote Putin’s Russia: The Rise of a Dictator.
