The Kiln by William Mcilvanney
In a rented flat in Edinburgh, Tom Docherty calls up his past. He remembers his youth in a mining town during the 1950's, and his adulthood in Grenoble. Now in the 1990's, he tries to make sense of his experiences and the times he has lived through.
William McIlvanney is one of Scotland's foremost writers whose award-winning novels include LAIDLAW, DOCHERTY, which won the Whitbread Award for Fiction, THE PAPERS OF TONY VEITCH, THE BIG MAN, which was made into a film starring Liam Neeson, STRANGE LOYALTIES, and THE KILN. He has also published a volume of short stories, WALKING WOUNDED, three books of poetry and a collection of essays and journalism, SURVIVING THE SHIPWRECK. He lives in Glasgow.
