A Gathering: A Personal Anthology of Scottish Poems by Alexander McCall Smith
emotional
reflective
medium-paced
Our tastes in poetry do not align much, but I still managed to find a few poems I liked in this collection.
Helpfully, the poems written in Gaelic come with translations, and the ones written in Scots come with small word/expression translation annotations. However, I could have used a couple more annotations in a few places.
