As the author of over one hundred books, including the award-winning The No.1 Ladies' Detective Agency series, the Isabel Dalhousie novels and the world's longest-running serial novel, 44 Scotland Street Alexander McCall Smith is one of the most celebrated and bestselling authors of the last 30 years, having sold over 30 million books around the world.
This autumn alone sees the publication of three new books: the latest 44 Scotland Street novel, Bertie’s Theory of Ice Cream, In the Time of Five Pumpkins, the new novel in the No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency series, and a standalone novel The Private Side of Friendship, a tale of nostalgia and charm, but set against the complex backdrop of the 1980s Miners' Strikes.
In this special appearance, he will reflect on his extraordinary journey from law professor to global literary phenomenon, offering insights into his characters, inspirations, and the gentle humour that has enchanted millions of readers.
