This is an adventurous new collection of poems in which past companions are recalled, and the lives of the occupants of long-ruined farms imaginatively reconstructed, amid a spectacular landscape of hills, moors and cliffs. The fauna and flora of Kintyre's west coast come to life in affectionate detail. The poems – all written in the winters of 2015/16 and 2016/17 - also capture the spiritual values inherent in the silence and strangeness of remote places. They will speak both to local people who know and love such places as The Inneans, Craigaig and Largiebaan, and to those who have appreciated Angus Martin's poetry in the past or who wish to discover it now.
