Fergus Lamont by Robin Jenkins

lindaxk's review

3.0

I liked the plot and many of the characters were interesting but it was also very wordy. If this story had been told in a different way I might've been more keen on finishing it. Nevertheless, three stars because I liked the story.

Edit 16.07.17 to say that I reread this and oh my, Fergus is such a conceited dick. For some reason this was a LOT more noticeable the second time around.

Nice book, not only about Scottishness and social identity but also about war, family, love, and a sense of home. Hard to read though since there's a lot of scots dialect and also quite a few words I did not understand. Not an easy read, but when brought to completion, definitely worth your time.
