Only edition in print of a unique collection by one of the founders of Scottish modern poetry. The poems included in this volume are mostly written in Scots dialect.
The premature death of Sydney Goodsir Smith at the age of fifty-nine deprived the world of one of the major personalities in twentieth-century British literature.
The poems included in this volume, mostly written in Scots dialect – from Skail Wind, first published in 1941, to the verse collections of his maturity and the gentle, philosophical compositions of his later years – show us the journey of a man who understood the world only too well, and are a testament to the inventive genius of his mind.
Contains notes and a full glossary.
