Description

Nan Shepherd was one of Scotland's most respected writers in the 1930s. Her novels and poetry established her as a key figure in the Scottish Modernist movement, with works such as The Quarry Wood, The Weatherhouse, A Pass in the Grampians, and In the Cairngorms published between 1928 and 1934. Decades later, Nan's unfinished manuscript for The Living Mountain was rediscovered, revealing a powerful reflection on her experiences walking in the mountains. This book, first re-published with an introductory essay by Robert Macfarlane ten years ago, has since been widely read and admired. This biography, written by Charlotte Peacock, offers unparalleled access to Nan's archives and personal relationships, providing a vivid portrait of North East Scotland in the early 20th century and the Scottish literary scene.
