Morvern Callar (1995) is the debut novel of Scottish writer Alan Warner.

Morvern Callar was in foster care as a child. As a young adult she is working at a supermarket in a small town.

She wakes up on Xmas morning to find her boyfriend has killed himself. She takes the manuscript of his unpublished novel and sends it to the publisher recommended in the young man’s suicide note. However, Morvern passes the novel off as her own.
