A Gathering by Alexander Mccall Smith

A Gathering by Alexander Mccall Smith

A poem does not have to be famous to be cherished. The best-known poems of Robert Burns have been loved by countless people over the years, but there are other poems that may be largely unknown that will mean a great deal to the few who are familiar with them.

'Lesser known works by Scottish poets have been hand-picked to show the divers and passionate voice of the country'

* Scots Magazine *

‘A haunting personal mixtape that gives voice to the ghosts of Scottish poetryThe personal nature of the collection allows McCall Smith to shine a light on lesser-known works. Every reader will find something to latch onto'

* Herald on Sunday *

'A beautifully curated, timeless collection'

* Woman’s Weekly *

‘Sit back - there is certainly plenty here to enjoy’

* Scotsman *

'The true excitement of discovery lies in the lesser known gems, [such as] Tessa Ransford's Nocturne Lewis. There are poems that seep Scotland through their very pores. A wonderful anthology'

* The Wee Review *
