    George Mackay Brown: The Life - Paperback - Maggie Fergusson
    George Mackay Brown was one of Scotland's greatest 20th century writers, but in person a bundle of paradoxes. Maggie Fergusson interviewed him several times and is the only biographer to whom he gave his blessing. Through his letters and through conversations with his acquaintance, she discovers that his life was vivid and surprising.

    Not For Glory - Paperback - Janet Paisley
    This collection of stories is delivered in a Scottish prose style unique to this writer. The author sets her book in a central Scots village, laying bare dramas of the lives of the villagers in a world where there's little escape and privacy.
