Description

Glasgow 1961. Ten years have passed since we last visited 18 Dalbeattie Street in Maryhill. Life has changed little for some, yet new faces arrive to shake things up. Frank Galloway, a tram driver, knows the city's fate is sealed - Glasgow will lose its trams by the end of next year. Meanwhile, Ruby Baxter brings her own brand of attitude to the close. As the stalwarts go about their daily lives, they face challenges and surprises from newcomers like Frank and Ruby. Ella, Drena, Rhea, and 'Granny' Thomson remain at the heart of the community, offering wisdom and wit in equal measure. Robert Douglas weaves a tale of laughter and tears, bringing his trademark blend to this latest novel. A poignant portrayal of life in Glasgow's Maryhill, Staying on Past the Terminus is a story about change, community, and the people who make it all worthwhile.
