Description

Magnus Merriman by Eric Linklater

After seven exciting years as soldier, student, lecturer, poet, traveller, editor, novelist, and lover, Magnus Merriman returns to his native Scotland. There his public and private life unfolds, partly in hilarious scenes in Edinburgh, punctuated by 'glass and bottle music', partly against the slow rhythm of farming life in the Orkneys. The conversations are laced with quotation and wit. The mood changes from the bawdy to the mock-heroic, from poetry to reportage. The many years which have elapsed since its first publication serve only to emphasize the enduring humanity of Magnus Merriman.
