{"product_id":"scottish-stories","title":"Scottish Stories","description":"Scottish Stories is a treasury of great writing from a richly literary land, where the short story has flourished for over two centuries. Here are chilling supernatural stories from Robert Louis Stevenson, Eric Linklater and Dorothy K. Haynes; side-splittingly funny stories from Alasdair Gray and Irvine Welsh; a stylish offering from urban realist William McIlvanney. Iain Crichton Smith evokes the Gaelic-speaking highlands, George Mackay-Brown the Orkney islands, Andrew O'Hagan working-class Glasgow; while Leila Aboulela, originally from Sudan, ponders the relations between colonizers and colonized from her home in Aberdeen. Though there is no one 'Scottishness' that binds the authors together, writes editor Gerard Carruthers, each has a Scottish footprint or accent. And perhaps more importantly, all are masters of their form.\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eAuthor: Carruthers, Gerard,editor,Stevenson, Robert Louis,contributor,Scott, Sir Walter,contributor,Hogg, Ja\u003cbr\u003eContributors: Carruthers, Gerard,editor,Stevenson, Robert Louis,contributor,Scott, Sir Walter,contributor,Hogg, James,contributor,Doyle, Arthur Conan,contributor,Oliphant, Margaret,contributor,Welsh, Irvine,contributor,Buchan, John,contributor,Smith, Ali,contributor,Sp\u003cbr\u003eBinding: hardcover\u003cbr\u003eNumber Of Pages: 480\u003cbr\u003ePublication Date: \u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: \u003cbr\u003eLanguages: English,Published,English,Original Language\u003cbr\u003eEdition: 1\u003cbr\u003ePublished\/Release Date: 23 Feb 2023\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Hardback\u003cbr\u003ePublisher\/Studio\/Brand: Everyman\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Director\/Artist: Sir Walter Scott\u003cbr\u003eDimension (cm): 186x124x36 mm\u003cbr\u003ePackage Dimension (cm): 35x188x128 mm\u003cbr\u003eItem Weight (g): 480\u003cbr\u003ePackage Weight (g): 475","brand":"Everyman's Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53382944719145,"sku":"BK1841596353","price":41.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/5868\/0105\/files\/71pSJAOtyIL_98f663a5-8e41-4545-bd5b-14eff1698582.jpg?v=1785640146","url":"https:\/\/www.centloop.com\/en-us\/products\/scottish-stories","provider":"Centloop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
