The new book, Matter, is out and we have a timeline of its
development, and details of the booktour as well as other forthcoming
Banks events of 2008.
As there is an upcoming theatre tour of The Wasp Factory we look at
the history of the production.
We also look back on Banks appearances at Mecon X, the Cheltenham
Literary Festival and a Scottish Government event is Brussels.
Plus the usual roundup of information. Banks Backlist shows what books
of his have been published throughout the world recently and are
coming in the near future, and Media Scanner examines recent coverage
the author has garnered.
STOP PRESS News is that Paul Cornell is writing a radio play for the
BBC based on the novella - The State of the Art.
