Welcome to Book Nation. With around 40 literary festivals, including the world's largest, the Edinburgh International Book Festival, Scotland has the most per capita anywhere, and a combined audience of 400,000. No other nation turns out in such numbers to listen to writers, ask questions, argue and buy their books.
Book Nation is a new enterprise that will create a network of author events in towns and cities all over the country, from Shetland to Wigtown that taps into the well established resources and expertise of our book festival partners. We will mount a programme of year-round author tours, giving audiences in Scotland an opportunity to see world-renowned names, and upcoming and exciting talents as they talk about their very latest work.
