This collection of Norman McCaig's poetry from over 40 years is an introduction to his work. It shifts between the lochs and mountains of the highlands and the cityscapes of Edinburgh, and between love poems and what MacCaig called the "unemphatic marvels" of the natural world.
The third edition of his collected poems, edited by his son and with an introduction by Alan Taylor. With 778 poems, 100 of them previously unpublished.
