This is the story of teenage Jed - 'Oxy' in its earlier pages - an oddball outsider who discovers a liking for birds but is baffled by everything else. A hard book to describe, its sometimes-comic narrative includes teenage paranoia, obsessions, eating disorders, religious sectarianism, repression, working-class life, father/son relationships, and wild birds' eggs. Underpinned by a fascination for the natural world, it is emphatically not of the 'plashy fen' school of nature writing. At root it is about the small moments, intently described, which are, ultimately, all we have. The Ayrshire Nestling will be available for sale exclusively at this in-person launch, priced £14. To order other copies, contact the author directly.

&quot;Bagpipes sound from afar, I only care about your news.
The castle keeps secrets for love, and I keep memories for you.&quot;
This is the location of Jay Chou&#39;s MV &quot;Obviously&quot;,
and it is also the birthplace of J.K. Rowling&#39;s creation of &quot;Harry Potter&quot;.
If you dream of a medieval city in a magical world,
then you must come here in this life.
Every building is a natural movie background,
and every corner seems to hide a secret passage to another world.
In the end, when the sunset on Calton Hill confiscated time,
Edinburgh, becoming amber that never fades, will always remain in my memory.
