Alexander McCall Smith’s Thursday festive conversation

NOVELIST Alexander McCall Smith will take part in an online festive conversation on Thursday night hosted by the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Centre.

The author, who is also a Scottish Field columnist, will speak to Lance Butler, the centre’s new chair, via Zoom.

The pair will discuss Christmas themes, including “compassion, altruism and hope” and will read “excerpts of poetry and prose that capture the essence of Christmas”.
