London St Andrew’s Book Festival. A Journey into Scotland’s wild landscapes, faith and the power of storytelling.

Sunday 22nd November at 1:30 p.m. London St Andrew’s Book Festival.

A Journey into Scotland’s wild landscapes, faith and the power of storytelling.

Join acclaimed Scottish poet, novelist and broadcaster Kenneth Steven at the St Andrew’s Book Festival London for a special event exploring Atoms of Delight, his moving reflection on pilgrimage, nature and Celtic spirituality. Kenneth’s writing has taken him from the ancient island of Iona to the remote beauty of the Highlands. His acclaimed BBC Radio 4 documentary, A Requiem for St Kilda, won a Sony Gold Award, while his books span poetry, novels, nature writing and children’s literature. In conversation with the Rev. Angus MacLeod, Kenneth will explore how Scotland’s landscapes, stories and spiritual traditions have shaped his life and work. This is an invitation to slow down, rediscover the wonder of the natural world and find beauty in the places and moments we might otherwise overlook.
