Book review: A Legacy Of Spies, by John Le Carré

12 Sep 2017 12:42 Living by the Sword

Let me say at the outset that this is a truly wonderful, morally complex, politically astute novel written with elegance and panache. Although much trailed as being a return to the characters of The Spy Who Came In From The Cold...

Theatre review: The Steamie, Adam Smith Theatre, Kirkcaldy

12 Sep 2017 12:02 Living by the Sword

Festival review: Edinburgh Mela

05 Sep 2017 09:04 Living by the Sword

After a difficult 18 months, during which its artistic director resigned and its core funding was pulled, the Edinburgh Mela has risen like a phoenix from the ashes – albeit with slightly less plumage.

Kirsty Gunn: Multiple reasons to feel dismayed by our monoculture

04 Sep 2017 05:00 Living by the Sword

I’ve just had an interesting letter from a writer friend. We have both been in discussion about this year’s Booker Prize for novels and he, as a distinguished and well known author who has been shortlisted for the Booker in the past...

Brian Ferguson: The latest festivals funding saga will run and run

28 Aug 2017 05:00 Living by the Sword

Navigating Edinburgh and its August festivals every day for the best part of the month is certainly not for the faint-hearted. To be a working journalist at the centre of it can be hard going, although...

14 Aug 2017 06:00 Living by the Sword

Kate Copstick’s Diary: Size doesn’t matter

13 Aug 2017 11:20 Living by the Sword

Book review: Blind Spot, by Teju Cole

10 Aug 2017 16:50 Living by the Sword

On the face of it, this latest book from the writer and photographer Teju Cole shouldn’t take long to read. Consisting of 158 photographs taken by Cole around the world, each one accompanied by a short essay, there can’t be more than 20,000 words in it.
