Bidh Anna Nicleòid a’ còmhradh ri dithis neach mu na leabhraichean as fheàrr leotha. ‘S iad na h-aoighean an t-seachdain-sa, Shelagh Chaimbeul agus Fionnlagh Cunniffe a bhios a’ taghadh nan leabhraichean. Bho olc gu fealla-dhà, saidheans gu eachdraidh Romanach agus sgeulachd dhealbhaichte cuideachd. Bidh leabhraichean ann a bheir smaoineachadh oirbh agus feadhainn eile a bheir gaire oirbh, mar; Cailèideascop le Daibhidh Eyre, The Twelve Caesars le Suetonius agus The Complete MAUS le Art Spiegelman.

Rugadh is thogadh Shelagh Chaimbeul ann an Glaschu. Tha a h-obair aig Comhairle nan Leabhraichean a ciallachadh gu bheil i air a cuairteachadh le sgeulachdan de gach seòrsa.
‘S ann a Dùn Èideann a tha Fionnlagh Cunniffe, a-nis aig an oilthigh ann an Glaschu. Tha e fhèin air peann a chuir ri pàipear is e air farpuis bhardachd a bhuannachd is e fhathast na sgoilear. Tha ùidh aige ann am ficsean saidheans.

Anna Macleod is in conversation with two guests about their favourite books. This week’s guests are Shelagh Campbell and Finlay Cunniffe. The book topics range from the visceral to the comical, the scientific and historical to animated literature. There are books to ponder over and books to laugh over, such as Cailèideascop by Daibhidh Eyre, The Twelve Caesars by Suetonius, and The Complete MAUS, by Art Spiegelman.

Shelagh Campbell hails from Glasgow and is the sales and marketing officer for the Gaelic Books Council, so she is familiar with a rich assortment of literary styles and genres. Finlay Cunniffe from Edinburgh is currently studying anatomy at the University of Glasgow and is particularly fond of science fiction works. He is also a writer in his own right, winning a poetry competition while still at school.
