Awrite, Bookworms?
This month we read Shuggie Bain, the debut novel by Scottish-American writer Douglas Stuart. It tells the story of the youngest of the three children, Shuggie, growing up with his alcoholic mother, Agnes, in the 1980s, in Thatcher-era post-industrial working-class Glasgow.
We won't lie, this wiz’nae an easy read, it's pretty heartbreaking, but we're really glad we read it. And also, as you may be able to tell, we really enjoyed all of the Glasgow slang, even when we havnae a scooby (have no idea) what it means.
Happy listening!
