About The Author | Emily Mackie was born in Winchester in 1983 and grew up in Scotland. After graduating with an MA in Creative Writing from Bath Spa University in 2007, her first novel, And This is True, was published in 2010 and was shortlisted for the Dylan Thomas Prize as well as the Saltire Scottish First Book of the Year Award. Her second novel, In Search of Solace, was published by Sceptre in 2014. |
'Irresistibly quirky…Though the book is expertly mined with narrative explosions – fire, gunshots, sudden violence and family revelations – its originality lies in the sly, halting way it reveals its mysteries, the odd perspectives that illuminate its characters, how much it is brave enough to leave unsaid….in Nevis Gow, Emily Mackie has created one of current fiction's freshest funniest oddballs' |
|
Other text | A striking first novel by a young writer, which confronts one of the strongest taboos. |
