Chapters explore leading figures such as Alasdair Gray, David Greig, Kathleen Jamie and Jackie Kay, while also paying particular attention to womens writing by Kate Atkinson, A. L. Kennedy, Denise Mina, Ali Smith, Louise Welsh, and writers of colour such as Bashabi Fraser, Annie George, Tendai Huchu, Chin Li and Raman Mundair. Tracing continuities with 1990s debates alongside ''edges of the new'' visible since Indyref 2014, these critics offer an in-depth study of Scotlands vibrant literary production in the period of devolution, viewed both within and beyond the frame of national representation.
