One Fine Day in the Middle of the Night voted one of the top ten Scottish novels of the last 50 years

As part of Book Week Scotland, The Scottish Book Trust asked the public to vote for their favourite Scottish novel of the last 50 years, with titles coming from a shortlist curated by literary critic Stuart Kelly in collaboration with staff from Scottish Book Trust.

More than 8,800 votes were cast and a lively debate started with book lovers from around the globe getting involved in the poll, with votes coming in from 57 different countries including the USA, Ethiopia, Iceland and South Korea.

The results have been announced and we are incredibly pleased to announce that One Fine Day in the Middle of the Night by Christopher Brookmyre has been selected as one of the ten titles.
