James Kelman has been a legend in the literary world since the late 1980s. He received notoriety with the publication of How Late It Was How Late,
which won the Booker Prize and caused a stir when some members of the
committee protested the award because they believed the book had
excessive profanity. Kelman writes fiction and non-fiction and
is deeply involved in class politics, in global struggles for
self-determination, and in fighting what he calls ?linguistic
colonialism.? He writes phonetically?spelling words as they are
pronounced by Scottish people, and stands by the principle that this is a
separate language and just as legitimate as ?standard English.? In
the world of literary scholarship he is considered to be on par with
these figures and it is a unique opportunity for readers to be able to
engage with the work of a living (and prolific) writer who has garnered
so much respect as an artist in the field.
