Love of Country: A Hebridean Journey by Madeleine Bunting

5.0

I just loved the wonderful narrative of the Hebrides; it’s soft, siren voice. The lure of isolated and sparsely populated isles, which are saturated in culture, heritage, Gaelic and inextricably linked with Scottish identity. Realism unveils horizontal rain, being cut-off from ferries and supplies and abandoned by government. It’s a wonderful read, beautifully written and soundly researched.
