Synopsis:
Vividly evoking the landscape of Scotland, particularly the brooding presences of the Scottish islands and Sutherland, these poems also touch on personal love and loss—combining nature with human themes in a collection that is both intimate and celebratory. Presented in English and Gaelic, the poems build on Meg Bateman’s established flair for uniting intense emotion and feeling with a classic, restrained control and structure that harkens back to Gaelic song-poetry and the beauty in a poem’s inevitability.
About the Author:
Meg Bateman is a lecturer of literature and philosophy at Sabhal Mòr Ostaig in Skye, part of the University of the Highlands and Islands. Her poetry is included in numerous anthologies, such as The Penguin Book of Scottish Verse and The Penguin Book of Poetry from Britain and Ireland, and she has translated and coedited anthologies of Gaelic medieval, 17th-century, and religious verse. Her previous poetry collections, Aotromachd/Lightness and Soirbheas/Fair Wind, were short-listed for the Scottish Book of the Year Award.
