A provisional re-mapping of Scotland's post-devolution literary
culture, these fifteen essays explore how literature, theatre and
visual art have both shaped and reflected the 'new Scotland'
promised by parliamentary devolution. Chapters explore leading
figures such as Alasdair Gray, David Greig, Kathleen Jamie and
Jackie Kay, while also paying particular attention to women's
writing by Kate Atkinson, A. L. Kennedy, Denise Mina, Ali Smith,
Louise Welsh, and writers of colour such as Bashabi Fraser, Annie
George, Tendai Huchu, Chin Li and Raman Mundair. Tracing
continuities with 1990s debates alongside 'edges of the new'
visible since Indyref 2014, these critics offer an in-depth study
of Scotland's vibrant literary production in the period of
devolution, viewed both within and beyond the frame of national
representation.
