The poet Ian Crockatt uses the same highly-wrought form here developed by the Skalds (the professional poets employed by the kings and earls of the Viking courts of the 9th to 13th centuries) to tell a quasi-Viking tale set in the landscapes and seascapes once under Viking control.
Ian Crockatt has created a quasi Viking tale, set in the landscapes and seascapes of territories once partially or wholly under Viking control – the north-east corner of Scotland where he now lives, the West Coast of Scotland where he used to live, and, in one poem, Iceland. It is a story in which people love, go to war, and suffer – the form of the poems may be new to some but the emotional landscape will be familiar to all.
