A review by iainkelly_writing
Whisky Galore by Compton MacKenzie

5.0

I couldn't write my own novel set on the Isle of Barra, and visit the island, without also picking up a copy and reading the most famous novel to feature the island, written by one of its most famous residents. A comic delight, some of it laugh out loud. A gentle tale of manners and culture clash, and a perfect glimpse into the way of life of the islands during the war.
