Delightful! --in every sense of the word: pleasurable, enlightening, encouraging. And he fails not to include the necessary celtic cat. With little details ornamenting the plot of an everyday life, and with little details voicing a generous fusion of satirizing and vindicating saints' lives and the idea of sanctity in Scotland, our author once more enriches the hopes of private lives and their power to critique implicitly the showy evils of the more public world. Haven't read a better piece since Aelred of Rievaulx on Ninian himself. Thank you, Scottish Book Trust. --Ellen Martin (New York City).
