Malachy Tallack & Kathleen Winter (2015 Event)
How do northern landscapes affect the people who live in them? Malachy Tallack’s Sixty Degrees North includes interviews and observations in places which share the same latitude, from Shetland to Scandinavia and as far as Alaska. Canadian writer Kathleen Winter’s novel Annabel was shortlisted for the Orange Prize. In her latest work, Boundless, she describes a breathtaking boat journey through the legendary Northwest Passage across the northern coast of Canada. Watch both authors in conversation with Stuart Kelly, filmed live at the 2015 Edinburgh International Book Festival.
