Anna Macleod chats with Mairi E MacLeod and Eoghan Stewart, who discuss books of special interest to them. Both guests enjoy reading but also write books and poetry.
Mairi has chosen two very distinct books. Her first choice is a crime novel written by Robert Galbraith, a pseudonym of JK Rowling. After Harry Potter, the author chose crime fiction for her next books. Her second choice is a warm and funny book written by Angus Peter Campbell, called An Constanbal Murdo. It is situated on Barra and the local constable sets out to find out who stole a precious souvenir from Kismuil Castle.
Eoghan currently lives in Inverness and is also an enthusiastic reader and enjoys writing poetry. He has chosen two diverse books but describes them both as 鈥渇ull of hope鈥. His first choice is written by Leslie Marmon Silko called Ceremony which explores Native American culture. Children of the Dead End by Patrick MacGill is his second recommendation. Although a fictional book, it closely resembles aspects of the writer鈥檚 own life starting with an account of his childhood in Ireland and then moving to Scotland where he discovers himself as a writer.
At the end of the show, each guest is tasked with choosing which of the four books they would like to take home with them.
