The mighty Alexander McCall Smith brings us all of his latest works including Bertie’s Theory of Ice Cream (the latest in his beloved 44 Scotland Street series) and In the Time of Five Pumpkins (in the perennially adored No.1 Ladies’ Detective Agency series). He is, quite simply, Scottish literary royalty. Moreover, when not busy being a staggeringly prolific author, McCall Smith also manages to collaborate with fellow creatives – in screen, stage, music and more. Today, meet with this true modern-day polymath.
