Tha farsaingeachd, doimhneachd, aotromas agus cias anns a’ chruinneachadh eireachdail seo. Tha Marion F. NicIlleMhoire gar toirt bho raointean Ghalile gu saor-làithean ann am Barraigh agus bho thaighean-dealbh Ghlaschu gu sgeulachdan bròin agus aoibhneis ann an Uibhist—an t-eilean far an do rinn i a dachaigh fad iomadh bliadhna. Tha dlùth choimhearsnachd, dàimhean teaghlaich agus creideamh làidir gu sònraichte a’ nochdadh san leabhar seo. Tha a’ bhàrdachd siùbhlach, eirmseach agus drùidhteach ann an iomadh nòs agus stoidhle—mholainn an cruinneachadh seo aig Marion dhuibh gu mòr. —Gillebrìde Mac ’IlleMhaoil
There is diversity, depth, lightness and longing in this beautiful collection. Marion F. Morrison takes us from the plains of Galilee to holidays in Barra and from the picture-houses of Glasgow to tales of sadness and joy in Uist—the island where she made her home for many years. Close-knit community, family ties and a strong faith come across strongly in this book. The poetry is flowing, eloquent and poignant using a range of styles—I heartily recommend Marion’s collection to you. —Gillebrìde MacMillan
Nach math a bhith a’ cur fàilte air guth ùr ann an saoghal na bàrdachd.
