The Luath Burns Companion by John Cairney
This is not another 'complete works' collection but a personal selection of sixty favourite poems, songs and other works, chosen by 'the Man Who Played Burns', as well as an introduction that explores Burns' life and influences, his triumphs and tragedies. "The Luath Burns Companion" is a unique introduction to the works of one of Scotland's best loved poets by a man with an obvious love and depth of understanding for Burns and his work. This selection reveals the drama, passion, pathos and humour that make Burns' work what it is. He was always a forward thinking man and remains a writer for the future.
John Cairney is one of Scotland's leading actors. He has been described as a living embodiment of Robert Burns, perhaps best known for writing and starring in the 1968 Scottish Television adaptation Burns. Since then, he has written and performed Burns on all media and at festivals and Burns night suppers around the world.
