Passengers mentally listing their favourite Scottish stations might include the magnificent and largest – Glasgow Central – or perhaps its east coast counterpart, Edinburgh Waverley. However, many may...

Art reviews: Scottish Portraits 1700-1950 | Barry McGlashan | Enduring Eye

26 Sep 2017 11:32 Living by the Sword

At the beginning of his career Sir Joshua Reynolds declared that he was never going to be just a mere face painter: portraiture unadorned would not be good enough for him. As he was about many things, Reynolds was wrong, misleading English art for several generations in the process.

Festival review: Skye Live, Portree

25 Sep 2017 12:45 Living by the Sword

It’s been a decade since the Isle of Skye Music Festival was forced to close due to financial sustainability issues, yet here was its more modest successor event Skye Live celebrating its third birthday in fine style, making it as long-lived as the event that went before.

James MacMillan’s Cumnock Tryst mixes global stars and local talent

25 Sep 2017 09:32 Living by the Sword

It’s only the fourth annual Cumnock Tryst Festival, but already, it seems, audiences in the former Ayrshire mining area are ready and willing to negotiate the uncompromising musical challenges of hardline 20th century modernists Iannis Xenakis, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Per Norgard and Elliott Carter.

CairnGorm ski operator says it is stuck in the middle of chairlift dispute

21 Sep 2017 12:27 Living by the Sword

As reported last week, in the second instalment of an ongoing series, emotions are running high in the Spey Valley following the removal of two chairlifts from the CairnGorm Mountain ski area. Although they had been closed since 2005 many skiers had hoped that Ciste and West Wall lifts...

Book review: The Golden House, by Salman Rushdie

21 Sep 2017 11:04 Living by the Sword

If someone wanted to write a cruel parody of a Salman Rushdie novel, they might very well come up with Salman Rushdie’s new novel, The Golden House. It takes every one of his tropes and tricks and twitches, adds in a healthy dose of liberal smugness, and then preens itself for good measure.

Book review: The Growing Season, by Helen Sedgwick

21 Sep 2017 11:00 Living by the Sword

It is a world many women have dreamed of, one where pregnancy is no longer solely the responsibility of the female, where sexism has been stamped out and where child rearing is divided equally between the parents.

Theatre review: Cilla The Musical, Edinburgh Playhouse

20 Sep 2017 14:45 Living by the Sword

If you’re looking for spine-tingling moments in Edinburgh theatre this week, there are probably two on offer; and intriguingly, both are based on the history of the 1960s. One is the horrible, backward-looking sound of Enoch Powell’s “rivers of blood” speech of 1968...

16 Sep 2017 06:00 Living by the Sword

A new quartet with an illustrious pedigree, Glasgow’s Amor are an odd proposition on paper; a party-ready disco band comprising one avant-garde musician and songwriter (Richard Youngs), one Turner Prize-nominated artist (Luke Fowler)...

13 Sep 2017 16:53 Living by the Sword

Book review: Walking On Lava: Selected Works For Uncivilised Times

13 Sep 2017 11:27 Living by the Sword

In 2009, two English writers, Dougald Hine and Paul Kingsnorth, launched what they now describe as “a tiny initiative in the back room of a pub to about 40 slightly confused people”. That initiative was The Dark Mountain Project...

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...
