About the show

Join Gerda Stevenson, author of Cat Wumman: Tales o Nine Lives, as she mesmerises with her contemporary retellings of folk tales from Scotland, Japan, the Mississippi swamps and Inuit tribes, blending storytelling and song – over tea and coffee. 'In Stevenson’s hands, her beautifully crafted and wonderfully speakable Scots seems like a language reborn to meet the deep civilisational challenge of our time... a book of mighty and magical stories simply and superbly told, that marks its author out as one of the great champions of the Scots tongue' (Scotsman).
