If you enjoyed Booker Prize winner Shuggie Bain, you’ll want to see its creator Douglas Stuart when he appears on Thursday 28 May at Tyneside Cinema, courtesy of New Writing North. Douglas will be chatting about his highly-anticipated new novel John of John, a ‘tender and unflinching exploration of masculinity, sexuality and unspoken desires in a controlling Presbyterian community on the Isle of Harris’.

Douglas will be in conversation with bestselling Scottish crime author Val McDermid. You can book your tickets at https://newwritingnorth.com
