Our #2020BookerPrize winner @douglas_stuart explains the role that Glasgow had as inspiration for his novel, Shuggie Bain, in this interview for @BBCTwo and shown in the 2020 Booker Prize winner ceremony:
‘Growing up in Glasgow … was probably one of the greatest inspirations of my life. How can you take this … really tough but tender city, and look at the people who are … making their way in it … and, as a writer, how can it not …put these roots into your soul that you want to just keep writing about, and writing about, and writing about?’
