David Keenan: Boyhood

It starts in 1979 with the abduction of a young boy outside a Glasgow football ground.

But David Keenan’s Boyhood soon swells into a journey of grief and recovery, past and present, imagined and real.

The author of cult classic This Is Memorial Device returns with his love letter to Glasgow, a novel Irvine Welsh is calling ‘a complete triumph’.

Today, Keenan introduces this extraordinary and multilayered story about youth, dreams, and magic.
