Scottish Stories is a treasury of great writing from a richly
literary land, where the short story has flourished for over two
centuries. Here are chilling supernatural stories from Robert Louis
Stevenson, Eric Linklater and Dorothy K. Haynes; side-splittingly
funny stories from Alasdair Gray and Irvine Welsh; a stylish
offering from urban realist William McIlvanney. Iain Crichton Smith
evokes the Gaelic-speaking highlands, George Mackay-Brown the
Orkney islands, Andrew O'Hagan working-class Glasgow; while Leila
Aboulela, originally from Sudan, ponders the relations between
colonizers and colonized from her home in Aberdeen. Though there is
no one 'Scottishness' that binds the authors together, writes
editor Gerard Carruthers, each has a Scottish footprint or accent.
And perhaps more importantly, all are masters of their form.
