Oo an Feddirs by Christie Williamson

Oo an Feddirs is the first full collection from established poet Christie Williamson. Carries the striking imagery and rhythm which came through Arc o Moens, Williamson's translation of poems by Federico Garcia Lorca, to themes of family, love and loss. Not so much a manifesto as a manifestation through poetry of what it's like to be him - a living, breathing human being like any other. A striking collection of over 70 poems, some of which have been published in magazines as diverse as New Shetlander, Poetry Scotland, Northwords Now, Gutter and New Writing Scotland. 'Parasites' was shortlisted for the Wigtown Poetry Competition in 2006.

CHRISTIE WILLIAMSON is a Yell man living in Glasgow. His poetry has been published in magazines including the New Shetlander, Lallans and Northwords Now, and commended in the William Soutar Open Writing competition and the Wigtown Poetry competition. His Shetland dialect translations of poems by Federico Garcia Lorca were published in 2010 by Hansel Cooperative Press under the title Arc o Moens, and won the Callum Macdonald Memorial Prize.
