Synopsis
In response to the findings of the 1999 questionnaire, this issue expands to 144 pages, allowing for greater variety and innovation. It celebrates the wit and wisdom of Alasdair Gray in his "The Book of Prefaces". Contributor to the "Book" Angus Calder reveals some of Gray's more mysterious "modus operandi". Dave Manderson demonstrates Gray's joyous defiance of all categorization, and his othe rmajor talent is shown in his being the featured artist. RLS Memorial Award winners Chris Dolan and Maggie Graham discuss their experiences in France and readers get a taste of the inspired and completed there. There is also an appreciation of the Glasgow writer Bill Keys along with the usual mix of poetry, fiction and reviews.
