Best known as the playwright of Jamie the Saxt and Jeddart Justice,
Robert McLellan has been called the finest writer of Scots prose in
our time. His 'Linmill' stories were broadcast by the BBC, one of
which, 'The Donegals' was made into a film. But for the most part
McLellan's prose work has appeared in magazines or anthologies
without being fully collected in book form. Their popularity has
endured and now all twenty-four of his tales are available in one
volume. Based on the author's youthful memories of his
grandparents' fruit farm near Lanark, these finely observed stories
give us a priceless insight into a generation now lost to us, and a
timeless evocation of the world seen through the eyes of a young
boy. There is honesty, compassion, harshness and humour in these
stories, and McLellan's quiet voice adds a unique wit and an
unsentimental authenticity to the telling.
