Publisher's Synopsis

Love and Revolution: a poetic journey through political ideals, love, loss, and life in the Western Isles. From the best-selling author of Soil and Soul comes this much-awaited first collection of poetry. Alastair McIntosh provides fresh insights into modern Scottish life and into being a citizen in one world through moving, modern poetry, including Homage to Young Men, a poetic collaboration with the band Nizlopi - of JCB Song fame - due for LP release in August 2006. From topics as diverse as saving the curlew to land ownership on the Isle of Eigg and the first Gulf War, Alastair McIntosh offers an enlightening perspective on recent political happenings at home in the Hebrides and in the wider world.

About the Publisher

Luath Press

Luath Press takes its name from Robert Burns, whose little collie Luath (Gael., swift or nimble) tripped up Jean Armour at a wedding and gave him the chance to speak to the woman who was to be his wife and the abiding love of his life. Burns called one of The Twa Dogs Luath after Cuchullin's hunting dog in Ossian's Fingal . Luath Press was established in 1981 in the heart of Burns country, and is now based a few steps up the road from Burns' first lodgings on Edinburgh's Royal Mile. Luath offers you distinctive writing with a hint of unexpected pleasures.
