"The Glasgow Novel: a complete guide is a third edition, updated, thoroughly revised and for the first time illustrated, of the standard bibliographical guide to Glasgow fiction originally published by the Scottish Library Association in 1972. Over 400 novels set wholly or substantially in Glasgow, from the age of Smollett, Scott and Galt to the present day, are listed with full annotations and indexed by author, title and year of publication. The introductory essay provides a detailed overview of Glasgow fiction, showing how earlier stereotypical depictions have been replaced by the exciting and innovative work of internationally recognised authors like Gray, Kelman, Galloway and Kennedy."
