A powerful novel set in the city of Glasgow in 1939 - but with a strange relevance to the events of today
From this evocative title comes a novel set in the city of Glasgow in 1939. The main character, a journalist, finds that a glimpse of wild geese in flight catalyses the development of his thinking on various levels - social, political and psychological. The contrast between urban and rural life, characteristically penetrating dialogue, remarkable insight, physical violence...all are included and take the reader on an absorbing and enlightening journey to the story''s denouement.
The book has a strange relevance to the events of today. The battle against terrorism, the fear of recession and the decline in adherence to established religious beliefs, are symptoms, albeit in different guise, of an uneasiness with regard to world stability and the erosion of traditional values and beliefs.
