An Evening with Nicola Sturgeon

We're delighted to be welcoming Nicola Sturgeon to Portobello Town Hall for an evening event to discuss her new memoir, Frankly. Sturgeon has always been a huge supporter of independent bookshops and we're really looking forward to welcoming her back to Portobello.

Join us in person for a special evening at our local Town Hall!

Doors due to open at 6.45pm, please arrive promptly.

Please note that Frankly will be published earlier in the year on 14th August, therefore books for the Book & Ticket options will be posted out to you or made available to collect from the bookshop between then and the event on 22nd October. You can choose whether you would prefer collection or postage in the checkout options.

This event will take place at Portobello Town Hall, 147-149 Portobello High Street, Edinburgh.

About Frankly:

The long-awaited, intimate memoir from Nicola Sturgeon, Scotland's first female first minister and former leader of the SNP, reflecting on her life and times at the forefront of Scottish and British politics.

The much anticipated memoir from Nicola Sturgeon, Scotland's first female and longest serving First Minister.

Nicola Sturgeon’s memoir will chart how she went from being a shy child from a working-class family in Ayrshire to the steps of Bute House as Scotland’s first female and longest serving First Minister.

It will detail her interactions with a range of notable figures, giving her unique in-the-room perspective on the most eventful and tumultuous era in modern Scottish and British politics. She will cover all the important events and debates of her time, including the establishment of the Scottish Parliament, the SNP’s election to government, the Scottish Independence Referendum, Brexit, Covid and much more. The result will be a deeply personal and revealing memoir from one of Britain’s most significant political leaders of recent times.
