Robin Jenkins wrote a number of landmark novels including The Cone-Gatherers, Happy for the Child, The Thistle and the Grail and Guests of War. One of Scotland's greatest writers, the themes of good and evil, of innocence lost, of fraudulence, cruelty and redemption shine through his work. His novels, filled with ambiguity, are rarely about what they seem. He published his first book, So Gaily Sings the Lark, at the age of thirty-eight, and by the time of his death in 2005, over thirty of his novels were in print.
