We are delighted to welcome Douglas Bruton to Biggar for an event. Please join us in the bookshop to celebrate the his latest novel 'With or Without Angels' and hear about his work.

Douglas was a high school English teacher and lives in Carlops. He has won numerous, prestigious awards for his short stories and his novel 'Blue Postcards' was longlisted for the Walter Scott Prize for Fiction.

'With or Without Angels' is a timeless love story and a dreamlike exploration of the creative process.

An ageing artist, faced with his own mortality, embarks on one final artwork. As he battles to complete the project, working with an enigmatic young photographer, he finds his past and present blurring. Through the act of creation and the memories it excavates, the artist comes to a realisation about what matters most, and what he will leave behind when he is gone.
