Beskrivning
Join Alistair Findlay on an off-beat tour of Scotland, from museum artefacts to public pieces of art, where he captures the humorous, passionate, and sometimes biting voices of some of our national treasures.
Alistair Findlay worked for over thirty years as a social worker in communities across the UK, and also has a Masters Degree in Modern Poetry in English from Stirling University. In August 2007 Alistair was awarded a Writer's Bursary by the Scottish Arts Council to produce this book, which is his third collection of poems on social workers, and also to edit an anthology of Scottish Marxist poetry - Lenin's Gramaphone. As well as his poetry, Alistair Findlay is the author of Shale Voices, a creative memoir of the shale oil communities of West Lothian.
