Douglas Stuart
The St. Louis County Library Foundation and Left Bank Books Present Booker Award-winning Novelist Douglas Stuart
Author of “John of John”
From the Booker Prize-winning author of “Shuggie Bain” comes a moving novel about duty, passion, and the transformative power of truth. With little to show for his art school education, John-Calum Macleod takes the ferry back home to the Scottish Isle of Harris and his father’s sheep farm. Little has changed except for him. As lambing season turns to shearing season, the threads holding the community together become increasingly frayed, and nothing will remain as it was before. “John of John” is a magnificent literary work that cements Douglas Stuart's reputation as one of our greatest novelists working today.
