Changing the Conversation

We asked authors what they would change the conversation around.

Book Week Scotland 2019 is all about conversation. A conversation can be more than idle chit-chat; it's also a way of dismantling stereotypes, creating new stories, claiming space and making sure everyone is heard. We asked some of our favourite authors to share the conversations they want to change.

Jason Reynolds: Changing the Conversation about... Men's Mental Health

Mariam Khan: Changing the Conversation about... Muslim Women

Salma El-Wardany: Changing the Conversation about... Muslim Women
