Join us this year for IFOA’s Highland Fling
October 21 - November 3, 2009

In Scotland’s Year of Homecoming (the 250th anniversary of bard Robert Burns’ birth) IFOA XXX is celebrating Scottish authors and Canadian writers of Scottish descent, in a special partnership with the Edinburgh International Book Festival.

See dedicated materials for details of how to follow these authors throughout the festival, watch out for ticket giveaways online, and Scottish freebies on site in the Festival Hub! Featured authors are: Alan Bissett, Ron Butlin, David Byrne, Margaret Elphinstone, Murray Grigor, Jen Hadfield, Richard Holloway, Quintin Jardine, A.L Kennedy, Linden MacIntyre, Martin MacIntyre, Alistair MacLeod, Ken McGoogan, Jean McNeil, James Meek, Denise Mina, Alice Munro, Andrew O'Hagan, Ian Rankin and Eleanor Thom.

Thanks to the Edinburgh International Book Festival and the Scottish Government for making this focus possible.
