Diana Gabaldon: The Outlander Phenomenon
In 1991, Diana Gabaldon published Outlander, the tale of a post-Second World War nurse who accidentally time travels to Jacobite Scotland. Outlander became one of the bestselling book series of all time and spawned the hugely popular TV programme. In 2021, Gabaldon published the ninth book in the series, Go Tell the Bees That I am Gone. She returns to the Book Festival for the first time since 2014 to discuss Claire, Jamie and all things Outlander.
