Synopsis "a modest harmony"

A Brooklyn family buys a stone cottage beside a loch in Scotland and summers in the lonely hills. Witty and passionate...the little society scattered across the lonely hills is rightly set against its ancient and recent history...this wise book...entertainingly observant...Perthshire winds, voices, birdsong, silences...weeks spent in reading, (no TV, no radio) -Ronald Blythe, author of AKENFIELD, NYTimes Book Review. A resonant book...in lucid prose she shows how the Scots preserve and guard the spirit of an older world against the intrusion of modern life. -Paula Fox I was enchanted by this story of seven summers in a Scottish Glen...shepherds, townspeople, farmers, lairds...Sheila Gordon is perceptive, lyrical...humorous -Francis Steegmuller
