Book Description
An Dàn – caochladach, dìomhair is uaireanan gu math cruaidh. Cò nar measg nach do dh' fhuiling buaidh An Dàn air ar beatha? Bho fàsaichean Àstrailia gu na h-Innse Gall, bho taigheadas seann dhaoine gu casino anns a' bhaile mhòr tha an cruinneachadh seo a' sealltainn dhuinn làmh An Dàin ag obair ann am beathannan agus anns na dàimhean caochladh charactaran. Buidheann sgrìobhadairean ag ionnsachadh leasan ùr iongantach , cupall a' dèiligeadh ri laigse na h-aoise. Pàrantan a' strì ri thuigsinn inbheachd ùr an nighean ,fear a' dèanamh bargan nach eil ag obrachadh a-mach ann an dòigh san robh dùil aige. Ann an cuid de na sgeulachdan bidh caractaran a' tachradh ris An Dàn ann an cumadh strainnsear no neach-tadhail aig nach robh dùil aca. Tha sgeulachdan ann far a bheil An Dàin a' tighinn am follais ann an tachartasan sònraichte agus cuid eile far a bheil caractaran a' feuchainn ri cothachadh leis a' bhuaidh 's a tha An Dàin a' fàgail orra bho na làithean a dh'fhalbh. Gu tric bi iad gar fàgail le ceistean mun àm ri teachd, ' s iad uile a' cuir cuideam air dè cho mi-chìnnteach 's a tha beatha mac an duine, far nach eil fhios aig duin' againn dè tha air thoisich oirnn. Fate – fickle, mysterious and sometimes very cruel. From the outback of Australia to the Hebrides, from a city casino to the confines of sheltered housing, this collection of stories shows the hand of Fate at work in the lives and relationships of a wide variety of characters. There are the members of a writers' group who learn a new and surprising lesson, a couple coming to terms with the restrictions of age, parents forced to acknowledge the growing maturity of their child, a man who makes a bargain with unforeseen results. In some stories, the characters encounter Fate in the guise of a stranger or unexpected visitor, or while experiencing significant – sometimes life-changing – events. In others, the characters are facing up to the effects of a fateful experience in their past. All the stories will leave you with as many questions as answers and make you think anew about the effect of Fate on all our lives.

Book Description
A haunting exploration of the Cold War arms race that tells the story of a true, covered-up germ warfare incident in a remote part of Scotland, involving the US, Canadian, and UK governments. NOMINATED FOR THE 2021 HIGHLAND BOOK PRIZE Operation Cauldron, 1952: Top-secret germ warfare experiments on monkeys and guinea pigs are taking place aboard a vessel moored off the Isle of Lewis. Local villagers Jessie and Duncan encounter strange sights on the deserted beach nearby and suspect the worst. And one government scientist wrestles with his own inner anguish over the testing, struggling to navigate the moral arguments for and against such dangerous testing and extreme deterrent weapons. When a noxious cloud of plague bacteria is released into the path of a passing trawler, disaster threatens. Will a deadly pandemic be inevitable? A haunting exploration of the costs and fallout of warmongering, Donald S Murray follows his prize-winning first novel with an equally moving exploration of another little-known incident in the Outer Hebridean island where he grew up.

Book Description
The Gaelic Literature Awards 2020 Best Unpublished Manuscript for Adults - Linne Dhomhain by Alistair Paul. Ordinary people. Everyday situations. Extraordinary outcomes. One small twist of fate and the normal turns to the fantastic. And so, the book's characters are propelled into the world of the marvellous, the supernatural and the surreal; not to mention the ridiculous; where they wrestle with their demons, their desires and their failings. Sometimes they triumph. Sometimes life triumphs. Their stories take us from the familiar shores of the Highlands through the smoky streets of Glasgow and the industrial heartlands of the North of England to the sun-scorched African Savannah. Taking inspiration from local folklore on the island of Arran, traditional Gaelic storytelling themes and techniques are weaved into modern topics such as relationships, drug use and mental illness. Take a walk up the glen and dive into the deep pool.
