For A That - 'A Celebration of Burns' A book and an event to celebrate Burns. The words of Robert Burns, poet and artist, have crossed the decades, the centuries and the globe, meaning something different to every one of us. The University of Dundee has especially commissioned writers from around the world to converge upon the pages of a prestigious new anthology - DBC Pierre, Janice Galloway, Bill Manhire and Kirsty Gunn - as well as national stars of the literary world - Gavin Wallace, Jim Stewart, Stewart Crossley - and some of the best unknown literary names to celebrate a great life well and truly lived by Scotland s best-known literary figure. In addition, a folio of original artwork has been created exclusively for the book, by Brigid Collins, with exciting new book design by Tim Bremner.
