Bookface Sip & Swap with author Sara Sheridan

Best-Selling Author Sara Sheridan to Headline Bookface Sip & Swap in Glasgow

Book lovers in Glasgow are in for a literary treat as best-selling author Sara Sheridan takes the stage as the guest author at the upcoming Bookface Sip & Swap event. Held at August House , this inspirational monthly gathering promises an afternoon of sipping, swapping, and engaging discussions with one of the UK's most renowned authors.

Sara Sheridan, a prolific writer and passionate activist with a keen interest in female history, is set to captivate audiences with her insights and experiences in the literary world. With over 20 books to her name, including her latest novel The Secrets of Blythswood Square, Sheridan's works have garnered critical acclaim and a dedicated following.

Known for her ability to breathe life into forgotten narratives and celebrate the often-overlooked contributions of women throughout history, Sheridan's novels have left an indelible mark on the literary landscape. From her award-winning debut Truth or Dare, which received the Scottish Library Award and was shortlisted for the Saltire, to her more recent works such as The Fair Botanists, chosen as Waterstones' Scottish Book of the Year in 2022, Sheridan's storytelling prowess knows no bounds.

In addition to her literary achievements, Sheridan's influence extends beyond the pages of her books. As an occasional journalist, she has lent her voice to BBC Radio 4's From Our Own Correspondent and explored themes of womanhood on Women's Hour. In 2019, Sheridan embarked on a groundbreaking project with Historic Environment Scotland, reimagining Scotland's history through the lens of its remarkable women. The resulting book, Where are the Women, earned accolades and sparked important conversations about representation and recognition.

At the Bookface Sip & Swap, attendees will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in Sheridan's world as they swap titles, sip on refreshments, and participate in a 45-minute Q&A session with the esteemed author. With 400 titles available for swapping, there's bound to be something for everyone at this vibrant literary gathering.
