We are delighted to be welcoming artist and debut novelist, Seth Insua, to the shop on Thursday 20th March, at 7pm, as we celebrate the publication of his blisteringly emotional, searingly powerful novel, Human, Animal, about one family's struggle to understand each other in a rapidly changing world. Dairy farmer George Calvert is fighting to keep the family business afloat. Worried about the future but resistant to change, he refuses to face the reality of his failing farm, his elderly mother's declining health and his troubled relationship with his youngest son, Tom. Newly returned from university, Tom isolates himself in his childhood bedroom, guarding the truth of his burgeoning identity. When animal rights activists break into the cowshed one morning and Tom appears to side with the protesters, father and son lock horns. As the Calverts begin to unravel, a decades-old secret surfaces - one that might rip them apart completely, or finally unite them. Seth will be in conversation with our Event Manager, Matthew Land, who grew up on a dairy farm in Wales. - Doors: 6.30pm, event starts: 7pm, please arrive early to secure a good seat. Tickets are £3and there is a Ticket & Book option which includes a signed copy of Human, Animal. The bookshop has level access, events are seated and speakers use microphones. If you have any concerns about accessibility, please do get in touch and we will do our best to accommodate your needs. Refunds are reviewed on a case-by-case basis, we are unable to offer a refund after the event. For more information or if you would like a signed copy because you can't make it to the event, please contact the Blackwell's events team on 0131 622 8222 or matthew.land@blackwell.co.uk

Best Things to Do

Historic buildings

Edinburgh Castle is really beautiful, mainly because the weather is great. It takes two to three hours to walk down in a circle, if you go faster, you can go faster. After entering, you can change the paper ticket with the voucher number provided by Trip.com , you can rent a guide for 3.5 pounds, and you can listen to the corresponding number of the attraction.

Palace of Holyroodhouse

leotiger

Holly Luther Palace is worth a visit. When time permits, you must see Queen Mary&#39;s Palace in Scotland. It is still the place where the royal family holds a garden party in the summer. It overlooks the throne of Arthur. The order of visits inside the palace is very reasonable. With the introduction in the headset, immersive feeling the heavy atmosphere of history! !

The Scotch Whisky Experience

Immediate access

I came here once more than ten years ago, and this time it is different from the past. There are many more high-tech things, but a lot less original and original flavor. If you have time, you can experience it. There are interpreters in various languages, real-time, following the rhythm of the on-site tour guide, which is very convenient. You can also choose a whiskey to taste.

Night view

💎月亮宝石环游世界🌎

It is the most romantic sunset place. I have been here, it was cold but beautiful! I will not go into details about the many celebrity check-in places.
But my only deepest experience was the lyrics,
&quot;The castle keeps secrets for love, and I keep memories for you&quot;
I didn&#39;t think this song was romantic before, until I climbed to the top of Carlton Mountain⛰️It was really speechless and beautiful!!
I really like this light blue gentle dusk~~Thanks to the little afterglow near sunset that day, I saw the light blue and light orange sky line in the distance, which was really extremely romantic~~Continuously touched me✨💕🌹Recommend this extremely romantic place, must go?
【Scenery】
Medieval dusk🌆, the only one in the world❤️
