The collection is rooted in Ceitidh’s heritage from the Isle of Raasay and Midlothian and plaits the stories of women of folklore, local history, family and her own experience as a mother.

This book provides a voice to women’s stories across generations, highlighting both historical and contemporary issues. The primary themes include folklore, family history, motherhood, and the impact of the past on the present. The focus is on women’s experiences, both personal and communal, and how these narratives shape our understanding of identity and heritage.
