Description

Shetland: A Year in the Far North This beautifully illustrated companion to Ann Cleeves' novels takes readers on a journey through the year on Shetland, an archipelago of over 100 islands off the north-east coast of Scotland. With its dramatic landscapes and rich history, Shetland is a place where traditions are valued and celebrated, alongside new technologies and ways of working. From the Viking fire festival of Up Helly Aa in winter to the vibrant colours of spring flowers on the clifftops, this book captures the unique beauty of Shetland's flora and fauna as it changes with the seasons. With its stunning photographs and engaging text, Ann Cleeves invites readers to explore the islands' history, people, festivals, and natural world. Shetland is a place where the sea meets the shore in every direction, offering breathtaking views and a sense of remoteness that is both rugged and beautiful. This book provides a unique insight into this special place, perfect for anyone interested in Shetland's culture, history, or natural environment.
