Synopsis

This book is a moving collection of prose and poems that lyrically explores the rugged beauty of the Scottish Borders, the author's homeland. Drawing on the author's experiences as a shepherd, and through the lens of poignant personal loss, the author paints a picturesque tableau of nature, love and longing within a rural landscape. Touching on themes of mortality, faith and resilience, the author's intimate knowledge of the terrain, its wildlife and its people, lends depth to reflections on the human condition. Each lyrical passage captures, with raw honesty, the harsh realities of life in a remote rural community, while celebrating the simple joys and enduring power of the human spirit in the face of hardship. The author's moving insights into life, loss and love are sure to resonate with readers from all walks of life.
