Far from the Madding Crowd Bookshop in Linlithgow brings you the Further From Book Festival
Saturday 9 March at 10am
St Peter’s Church, High Street, Linlithgow
Oh Joy! It’s Further From Festival time again! Always a highlight of these winter-into-spring days, and from this writer’s point of view, always one of the delights of the writing year. And unquestionably the best cakes.
Jim will be talking about and reading from his latest book, Watching Wildlife, one of his publisher Saraband’s thought-provoking series titled In the Moment. The overarching theme of the series is meaningful engagement with the great outdoors. For this compact little book, Jim has selected a handful of wildlife encounters that constitute defining moments in the inexact art of watching wildlife and then trying to write it down. See the Home Page of this website for a short extract.
You can read Jim Crumley every Tuesday in The Courier and every month in The Scots Magazine. The magazine also has an archive of Jim’s monthly wildlife articles going back to 2007, accessible through its website.
