About this Event
This February marks the 20th anniversary of LGBT+ History Month, in recognition of this important milestone Glasgow Libraries are delighted to host two events celebrating LGBT+ families at the Mitchell Library on Saturday 15th February.
For our second event we welcome award-winning Scottish author Kirsty Logan to discuss her moving and immersive memoir about infertility, pregnancy and motherhood. In The Unfamiliar, shortlisted for the Saltire Society Scottish Book of the Year Award, Kirsty writes with wisdom, disarming humour and raw honesty to cast a fresh eye on motherhood and challenge our assumptions about pregnancy, gender roles, queer identity and what it means to be a parent.
Kirsty is the author of three novels, three story collections, two chapbooks, a 10-hour audio play for Audible, several collaborative projects with musicians and visual artists, and around 300 short stories. She lives in Glasgow with her family, where she is currently working on film and TV projects in addition to two new books, a short story collection due to be published on Valentine’s Day 2025 and a very long novel not due to be published any time soon.
