For the latest Scots Whay Hae! podcast Ali caught up with writer Ewan Morrison to talk about his latest novel For Emma, which is published on the 25th March with Leamington Books.Ewan gives an overview of the novel before talking about Robert Louis Stevenson, his choice of quotations which are the book's epigraph, the structure of the novel, the central characters, and the sense of paranoia which runs throughout.The two also discuss the central themes which include technology and transhumanism, but also the very human traits of love, regret, addiction, and grief. They also mull over the humour which comes, perhaps unexpectedly, from events rather than the writing itself.Ewan was last a guest on on the SWH! podcast way back in July 2012, and it was such a pleasure to be able to talk to one of the finest writers around once again, especially about this fascinating book.Ewan will be launching For Emma at Waterstones Argyle Street in Glasgow on 3rd April, in conversation with Nicola Meighan.Full details, including all the ways to listen, are over at https://www.scotswhayhae.comAll images of Ewan are credited to Angela Caitlin, 2025
