In these pages on Glasgow, you'll find two unique tales: a moving account of growing up in the shadow of Woodilee Hospital by author of The Gracekeepers, Kirsty Logan, and a deeply personal journey on foot through the city of Glasgow by Paul McQuade.Read by Chris Reilly and Kirsty Logan(p) Orion Publishing Group 2018Buy now!
