'Poetry and Punk' Gaelic Science Fiction
One of Scotland's finest poets, Meg Bateman, will be reading in Gaelic and English from her new collection 'Transparencies', published by Birlinn in 2013. Meg has been bringing new qualities to Gaelic poetry since her first publications in the 1990s. She will be accompanied by Tim Armstrong, author of the first ever hard science fiction novel in Gaelic, 'Air Cuan Dubh Drilseach' ~ 'On a Glittering Black Sea'. With elements of space-opera adventure, dark cyberpunk, romance, and rock-band road-trip drama, Tim's Gaelic novel is like no other. Enjoy a glass of complimentary wine at this informal event and experience two excellent, and very different, new works, from two fantastic authors.Date: 28/08/13
