The Keelie Hawk is a landmark collection from Kathleen Jamie, the
current Makar (National Poet) of Scotland. For the first time, Kathleen
Jamie has brought her astonishing lyric talent to the language of her
homeland, with outstanding results. The Keelie Hawk is a deeply
resonant collection written in Scots, with each poem accompanied by a
translation into English. Its publication is a significant event in
Scottish literature, not only a reclaiming by one of our finest poets
of the mouth-music of literary Scots, but a furthering of that
language: ‘by making poems, a language develops’, Jamie observes in a
fascinating afterword.
