Congratulations to the incredible M John Harrison on last night’s win at The Booker Prizes for his mesmerising and haunting story, ‘The End of Everything’. 🏆   In case you missed his event with us in August, head over to the On Demand page on our website to hear him discuss his creative writing process, why he finds the Kent coast so inspiring, and how he likes to start each book with a writing challenge to himself. 🌊 #bookerprize #theendofeverything #mjohnharrison #edbookfest 10 Nov 2026 Allllll aboard!! Push the Boat out, Edinburgh’s international poetry festival, is kicking off THIS Thursday and runs from 12-15 November! Bringing together extraordinary voices from Scotland and around the world for four days of poetry, performance, conversation and new discoveries – you don’t want to miss it!   Check out the programme over at pushtheboatout.org and make sure you sign up to our e-news at the link in our bio to unlock a special offer for the weekend! ⛵🌊📖🎤✨ #poetry #festival #edinburgh #pushtheboatout 09 Nov 2026 It’s been quite the news week for all of us interested in politics across the pond. Following the results from Tuesday night, we’ve been reflecting on this important conversation between Angela Flournoy and Claudia Rankine from this past Festival, where they discussed how they write about America in the turbulent times the country’s seen recently.   In this clip Flournoy reflects on how ‘polarisation’ has been framed in culture, offering her view on why challenging conversations need to take place for any progress to be made.   Her novel, The Wilderness, features in our next enews reading recommendations list all about navigating the complexity of our times. If you’re hungry for the insights of Angela and other current affair, crystal-ball commentators, head to link in our bio to make sure you’re signed up in time to catch the next edition! 🔗 06 Nov 2026 A bookshop trip, a stack of new reads and the thrill of finding your next favourite. What would you choose? 📖 We’ve teamed up with National Book Tokens to give you the chance to win a £100 gift card – accepted in bookshops everywhere. Enter now at the link in our bio for a little extra bookish joy this holiday season and your next favourite read could be on us! ❄️ #bookgiveaway #booksta #readinglist #bookworm 06 Nov 2026 What could be better than a little saunter around Edinburgh’s bookshops this weekend? Especially with the weather looking brighter than this time last week. And there are so many amazing bookshops to pick from! 📚   What’s your browsing style?   A. Go in with a list* B.

A mixture of classic novels and contemporary tales, take your pick this hallo-week (warning: not for the faint of heart, or delicate of stomach! ⚠️)   What books would you add?   #edbookfest #bookrecommendations #spookyseason #halloweekend #booksta 👀 Private Rites by Julia Armfield 👀 The Dangers of Smoking in Bed by Mariana Enríquez (translated by Megan McDowell) 👀 Drive Your Plough Over the Bones of the Dead by Olga Tokarczuk (translated by Antonia Lloyd-Jones) 👀 Night of a Thousand Hells by Intan Paramaditha (translated by Stephen Epstein & Tiffany Tsao) 👀 The Midnight Timetable by Bora Chung (translated by Anton Hur) 👀 Carrie by Stephen King 👀 Benbecula by Graeme Macrae Burnet 👀 The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins   👀 The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson 28 Oct 2026 🍯🎈In celebration of everyone’s favourite silly old bear turning 100 earlier this month, hear Matt Haig chatting to us back in August about rediscovering the Winnie the Pooh books during a difficult time and how the same stories can mean many things to us throughout our lives.   Matt’s full conversation with Sophie Gee (@secretlifeofbookspodcast) is our October Event Spotlight, which you can watch at edbookfest.co.uk/on-demand. 📽️ 23 Oct 2026 A postcard from Edinburgh International Book Festival ‘26 💌 #edbookfest #bookfestival #scotland #bookstagram 22 Oct 2026 The art of storytelling belongs to humanity. 📖   Author of so many brilliant books (including her latest, In One Brief Moment All Eternity) Elif Shafak talks about how stories give us the opportunity to meet ‘otherness’ as our friend. #booksta #edinburgh #bookworm 21 Oct 2026 We were hugely saddened to hear of the passing of the inimitable Douglas Dunn over the weekend. A gentle giant of the Scottish poetry scene, Dunn’s work bravely explored and movingly evoked topics including class, poverty, and grief. The mark he made on literature, and the students and writers who he taught and mentored, will leave a lasting legacy. Our thoughts are with his friends, family, and all of those who knew him.   “Crave codes of courtesy, ways of describing love, And these, in a good-natured land, are ways to weep,  True comfort as you wipe your eyes and try to live.” -Douglas Dunn, The Apple Tree   You can read more about Dunn’s life and work on the Scottish Poetry Library website. 20 Oct 2026 The books our team are reaching for as the weather gets colder… whether it’s a reread of a familiar favourite or a recent release with undeniably autumnal vibes. 🍂 Which ones are on your autumn TBR?? #booksta #bookrecommendations #autumnreading #edinburgh #scotland 14 Oct 2026 It’s World Mental Health Day, and we’re looking back on our conversation with Matt Haig (The Midnight Train) as he talks about the importance of staying alive for the version of yourself you don’t know yet.    The goal of this year’s World Mental Health Day is to help others feel heard. By taking the time to start a conversation or listen to a friend, you could help someone feel understood, less alone, and more confident reaching out for support. #worldmentalhealthday 10 Oct 2026
