The divine Muriel Spark is one of Scotland’s most revered writers, with legions of fans that include such luminaries as Ian Rankin, Alexander McCall Smith and First Minister Nicola Sturgeon. On the occasion of the hundred-year anniversary of her death, literary editor and friend Alan Taylor delivers Appointment in Arezzo, an intimate, fond and funny memoir – full of colour and indiscretion – of one of the great novelists of the last century. Taylor, founding editor of the Scottish Review of Books, reveals his Muriel, in conversation with Michael Williams.
