The Return of John MacNab by Andrew Greig
From the author of ELECTRIC BRAE, a story of loss and renewal, adventure and poaching.
Andrew Greig is one of the leading Scottish writers of his generation. He has published eight collections of poetry, most of these with Bloodaxe, including The Order of the Day (Poetry Book Society Choice), This Life, This Life: New & Selected Poems 1970-2006 and now As Though We Were Flying (2011). Known as 'the poet laureate of climbing', he publishes his collected poems of mountain adventures real and metaphorical as Getting Higher with Birlinn in 2011. Two books on his Himalayan expeditions have become classics in their field, as have Preferred Lies (a meditation on golf, self-recovery, Scotland) and At the Loch of the Green Corrie (fishing for Norman MacCaig, catching much else besides). His six novels include That Summer (Faber, 2000), The Return of John Macnab (Headline, 1996) and its late sequel Romanno Bridge (Quercus, 2008), and In Another Light (Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 2004), which was Saltire Scottish Book of the Year. He lives in Edinburgh and Orkney with his wife, novelist Lesley Glaister.
