About this product

Product Information

Best known as the playwright of Jamie the Saxt and Jeddart Justice, Robert McLellan has been called the finest writer of Scots prose in our time. His 'Linmill' stories were broadcast by the BBC, one of which, 'The Donegals' was made into a film. But for the most part McLellan's prose work has appeared in magazines or anthologies without being fully collected in book form. Their popularity has endured and now all twenty-four of his tales are available in one volume. Based on the author's youthful memories of his grandparents' fruit farm near Lanark, these finely observed stories give us a priceless insight into a generation now lost to us, and a timeless evocation of the world seen through the eyes of a young boy. There is honesty, compassion, harshness and humour in these stories, and McLellan's quiet voice adds a unique wit and an unsentimental authenticity to the telling.

  • Wonderful Book

    This is a wonderful book that anyone who grew up in the days when childhood was your own will want to read over and over. Not only do you hear the words spoken, the lilting accents, but you live the stories and recognise the people in them because they are real. The writer captures the freedom of this bygone childhood as well as the risks and terrors awaiting small boys, the lessons he learns and the warmth and security of his family. It is without question a 'must-read'.
