Recenzii
'.. a stellar collection of short stories, character sketches, anecdotes and shrewd observations of Scottish life and character. Among the gems [is] the short story of a dishonest shop assistant which for my money is as good as any written by the French master of the short story form, Guy de Maupassant. I recommend it as an antidote to the blues whether in Tighnabruaich or elsewhere.' Stan Gilmore, Journal of the Institute of Counselling, September 2010. 'This book is a clear extension of the Scottish verbal storytelling tradition. It will raise a smile for some, and the blood pressure of others. The hidden treasures are the most poignant moments.' Beth Thomson, Scottish Catholic Observer, July 2010. 'A good title is always a winner. But nowadays fewer Glaswegians sail, as they once said, 'doon the watter' to Clyde resorts like Tighnabruaich on the scenic Kyles of Bute. They are more likely to be stranded in a Spanish airport where these tales might amusingly - if nostalgically - help pass the time!' Jim Craigen, Co-operative News, August 2010.
