Description
Francis Boutle Publishers, 2024. 267 pages. Paperback.
Màrtainn’s acute sensitivity captures aspects of this evolving health crisis and much more – climate, landscape, politics, language, culture, leisure, friendship, love and family.
These fifty-two evocative, tightly-crafted poems in Gaelic and English sit comfortably and communicate openly with their Catalan and Welsh renderings. The attention, skill and poetic sensibilities of Noèlia Díaz-Vicedo and Ifor ap Glyn made that possible. A’ Ruith Eadar Dà Dhràgon is a first for Scottish literature!
Cha chanainn gu bheil aon dàn anns a’ chruinneachadh anns nach eil doimhneachd mhòr no bheag agus am modh-cainnt nàdarrach agus ealanta. Tour de force gun teagamh sam bith. ’S fhiach a leughadh. – Maoilios Caimbeul
Aquest és un cant a la unió de la terra, la llengua i la cultura a través de la condició humana i les accions de la quotidianitat… – Noèlia Díaz-Vicedo
Mae Mac an t-Saoir (sef ‘mab y saer’) yn driw i’w enw – mae gofal crefftwr o’r iawn ryw yn saerniaeth ei gerddi. – Ifor ap Glyn
… evokes bardic storytelling or the crafted thoughts shared in the late hours of a social gathering… a wonderfully accomplished book of poetry – Niall Campbell
