Publisher's Synopsis

An exciting assembly of Scotland's most promising new writers, with a foreword by Irvine Welsh and exclusive artwork by Aidan Moffat of Arab Strap

Such authors as Saltire First Book award-shortlisted Sophie Cooke, James Black Tait Memorial Prize nominee Suhayl Saadi, acclaimed novelist and poet Kevin MacNeil, and renowned performer and novelist Alan Bissett all contribute stories on contemporary Scotland. Throw in renowned international authors like Kapka Kassabova and Jason Donald and renowned figures of Scottish literature like Duncan McClean and you have a collection that aims to show a changing and dynamic new Scotland. Brand new, unpublished authors are also featured; quite simply if you want to read the best new talent in Scottish fiction, you've come to the right place.

About the Publisher

Cargo Publishing

Cargo began in 2009 in Glasgow, Scotland, where we were drawn together through our passion for literature. We collaborate with the likes of McSweeney's and the Edinburgh International Book Festival and we sell and distribute books in four countries and even further afield through our foreign rights partners, Faber & Faber. We publish the Dundee International Book Prize, the biggest cash prize in the UK for an unpublished novel, and we always put our authors first. In 4 years we've gone from being a small dream to a significant part of the publishing world, and we're very proud of that.
