Alasdair Gray book selection

  • Name

    Alasdair Gray book selection
  • About

    This is the result of a very special visit by My Bookcase founder Cristina Garriga to the writer's home in preparations of My Bookcase participation at Alasdair Gray Season (Spheres of Influence II, Reid Gallery, Glasgow School of Art).

    During the visit, in November 2014, Gray handpicked a selection of the most relevant books for him and his work. The resulting is a selection of books from Gray's childhood that were of high relevance for his artistic and literate work.

    My Bookcase facilitated the donation of this book collection to the Glasgow School of Art Library.

    These books are on donation process to GSA Library Special Collections. You can get in touch with the library at: https://capitadiscovery.co.uk/gsa/
