{"product_id":"9780862412821","title":"Linmill Stories","description":"\u003cp\u003eBest known as the playwright of \u003ci\u003eJamie the Saxt\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eJeddart Justice\u003c\/i\u003e , Robert McLellan has been called the finest writer of Scots prose in our time. His 'Linmill' stories were broadcast by the BBC, one of which, 'The Donegals' was made into a film. But for the most part McLellan's prose work has appeared in magazines or anthologies without being fully collected in book form. Their popularity has endured and now all twenty-four of his tales are available in one volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBased on the author's youthful memories of his grandparents' fruit farm near Lanark, these finely observed stories give us a priceless insight into a generation now lost to us, and a timeless evocation of the world seen through the eyes of a young boy. There is honesty, compassion, harshness and humour in these stories, and McLellan's quiet voice adds a unique wit and an unsentimental authenticity to the telling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Canongate Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47022290862320,"sku":"9780862412821","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780862412821_p0.jpg?v=1763826743","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780862412821","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
