4.0 out of 5 stars
Dramatic and sensitive social history,
This review is from: Silver Darlings (Faber Essentials) (Paperback)
Although this is a fictional account, Neil Gunn's writing brings the life of the fisher folk of north east Scotland so vividly to life one can be forgiven by thinking he was writing history. Delving deep into an industry that was always on the move, he follows the lives of the herring fleets, and the woman who do the hardest work and suffer the greatest loss when tragedy strikes, with intimate and enthralling detail.This is probably Gunn's best novel and puts him up among the best of Scottish writers. |
