A book worth reading..

I've been reading Andrew Greig's At the Loch of the Green Corrie. The book's a simple enough concept but beautifully written.
 . Not long before he died, Norman Mac Caig instructed Greig to fish at the Loch of the Green Corrie. Near Loch Inver in the far north of Scotland, it was an inspirational source for much of Mac Caig's poetry. The book's about that journey as well as the authors own life- one and takes the reader to a different and fascinating place.
I once met Mac Caig at a wedding but I think if  Mr Grieg had been the one sitting  at the opposite side of the table, he'd have seemed a lot more comfortable in  the company of strangers.
