About the Author
Matthew Fitt is a young vibrant Scots writer. His book takes the next step on from having poetry and dialogue in Scots to the complete work. It is supplying a market where there is a dearth of material both commercially and educationally.
Review
'The most talked about book in the Scottish publishing world... a springboard for inventiveness... if you can't get hold of a copy, mug somebody' MARK STEPHEN, SCOTTISH CONNECTION, BBC RADIO SCOTLAND 'I have no Scots... but I can, with occasional hiccups, read Fitt's offering and am doing so with much enjoyment.' KATIE GRANT, THE TIMES 'I began to think and sometimes dream in Scots.' GREGOR STEELE, TIMES EDUCATIONAL SUPPLEMENT 'easier to read than Shakespeare, and twice the fun.' DES DILLON 'Matthew Fitt will do for prose in Scots what Hugh MacDlarmid did for poetry in Scots' JAMES ROBERTSON 'a cracker' GERALDINE BRENNAN, TIMES EDUCATIONAL SUPPLEMENT 'going where no man has gone before' STEPHEN NAYSMITH, THE HERALD 'not a traditional rustic tale... I could understand quite a lot of that' (SUE MACGREGOR); 'the last man who tried anything like this was Hugh MacDiarmid' (MICHAEL FRY), TODAY PROGRAMME, BBC RADIO 4 'After an initial shock, readers of this sprightly and imaginative tale will begin to relish its verbal impetus, where a standard Lallans, laced with bits of Dundonian and Aberdonian, is stretched and skelped to meet the demands of cyberjannies and virtual hoorhooses... I recommend an entertaining and groundbreaking book.' EDWIN MORGAN
