A BREATHLESSLY BEAUTIFUL NOVEL OF THE HIGHLANDS In his day, and with his novels of romance, adventure, and Scots character, Neil Munro was considered the natural successor to his countrymen Walter Scott and Robert Louis Stevenson. Like Walter Scott's "Waverly," "Gillian the Dreamer" deals with the imaginative side of the Gaelic soul, trampled and disdained by male-dominated Scots culture. An orphan, Gilian is a boy of nature and poetry and spirit, at one with the glens and hills of the Highlands. He is naturally drawn to the nurturing Miss Mary, and the lovely Nan . . . but his affinity with them draws the ire of jealous males. Will Gilian's imagination . . . and dreams . . . survive to sing, like the curlew, over the lonely lochs and sea of Scotland? Here's a lyrical and soulful novel to read by a fire with a cup of tea and a box of Lorna Doones.
