People In A Landscape: Poetry from the far North of Scotland

Join us during Book Week Scotland for an evening of poetry with leading Highlands-based writer, George Gunn.

Themes of finding my place and making it home provide a rich context within which George will explore, reflect upon and celebrate the rich heritage, history and natural environment of Scotland's Highlands and Islands.
