The hugely popular Clydebank-born comedian Kevin Bridges is a familiar face, but today he’s here as a debut novelist. His book, The Black Dog, tells the story of Duncan, a wannabe writer whose dreams of a literary career help him escape from his ever-darkening thoughts. He thinks he sees a way out – but can you ever escape your troubles by running away?
Join the sharp-witted Bridges for a revealing discussion on dreams, depression and the possibility of redemption.
