Description
Gairm, 1993. 122 pages. Hardback.
A collection of twelve short stories, all based around the basic themes of ‘otherness’ and deception. The title translates as The Mask or The Strange Face, which reflects the struggles that many of the characters in the stories have with their sense of identity and social abilities.
“Without any doubt, Iain Moireach’s stories are the best we have in Gaelic, and this is because they are diverse but simultaneously homogeneous, rising from the same imagination.”
Iain Crichton Smith
Reading Level: Intermediate / Upper Intermediate (Short stories are ideal for slightly more advanced learners and more confident readers)
