Rosalka: The Silkie Woman: and other stories, plays and poems (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781916466739)

Isobel Lodge spins imaginative, timeless tales rooted in dramatic landscapes...from the wilds of northern Scotland where she grew up to inner-city Edinburgh and travels in Europe and beyond..."She came from a seascape: Salt-kissed; surrounded by grey fragments of ancient rock; a forgotten place. The people were tough in that village, like the stalks of the heather on the hill. When you walk among the plants, they spring back at you, whipping your ankles. She woke to the hissing and howling of the wind and the forlorn cries of the sea-birds and she was rocked to sleep by the wind's hum and thrum, the drone and fall and the slap, slap, slapping of the waves."
