Stars

To round off 2021 we are delighted to bring you a special reading of Stars by George Mackay Brown, read by our Keeper of Books in the Library. 

2021 was the centenary of the birth of Orkney writer and poet George Mackay Brown. Stars was originally published in The Tablet in 1995 and is collected in Christmas Tales, a limited edition of 125 copies printed by The Celtic Cross Press, with linocut illustrations by Rosemary Roberts.  Innerpeffray’s copy of Christmas Tales is numbered 38 and was donated to Innerpeffray by Janet Saint Germain as part of her Scottish Collection.
