Lanark: Chapter 44. End

Alasdair rereads his own favourite excerpt from Lanark – Chapter 44. End. I first shared this podcast in memory of my beloved Uncle who left us on the 29th of December 2019. When I asked him why he had chosen this chapter he said "because it's the end and, I think, a rather good one". I'm so pleased to be able to say that Alasdair's own death - like his life - was a good one. I made these recordings in what turned out to be the last year of my uncle's life - so I could spend more time with him and share with you the very great pleasure of sitting quietly at home with Alasdair listening to him read and talk about books. You can find out more about the story behind Alasdair Gray rereads in A Gray Space a creative space inspired by Alasdair Gray. I couldn't have made these podcasts without the help of my family and friends:  Alasdair Gray David Thomas - technical advice and support Berniya Hamie – closing piano Matthew Robinson – rereads logos Featured book: Lanark by Alasdair Gray.
