Mat o' Shanter is a stunning reimagining of a Scottish classic for the ears and eyes and hearts of today. Inspired by Robert Burns's 'Tam o' Shanter', alongside bold and energetic illustrations by Scottish muralist Ross MacRae, Simon Lamb's original and moving new work is a singular and unforgettable read.
A stunning new version of a Scottish classic for the ears and eyes and hearts of today by the Carnegie-nominated author of A Passing On of Shells. 'Tam o' Shanter' is one of the world's most famous poems. Written by Scottish poet Robert Burns in 1790, the narrative epic continues to enchant audiences the world over more than two hundred years after its composition. Now, written in response to that classic poem and inspired by the author's own experiences of it, Mat o' Shanter is both a spiritual sequel, a redux, and something entirely all its own. Rooted in Scotland, with appeal and accessibility for readers of all ages and from all over, this highly original and moving work incorporates an introduction to the original verse, poet Simon Lamb's full-length modern-day reimagining, and commentary in the form of an extensive - and surprising - author's note. Bold and energetic illustrations by Scottish muralist and first-time book illustrator Ross MacRae complete the package, making Mat o' Shanter a singular and unforgettable read.
