White Leaping Flame – Sorley MacLean Collected Poems

This is a collection of the complete work of Sorley MacLean who was probably the most important Gaelic poet of the 20th century. As well as his well-known poems such as the collection of poems “Dàin do Eimhir” and “An Cuilthionn”, some previously unpublished poems are included. Translations of the poems,  many of them by MacLean himself, are included in the book, as well as information about events and maps with placenames that the poet references. This is the newest and most extensive collection of MacLean’s poetry and everyone with an interest in Gaelic poetry or even poetry in general in the 20th century should possess a copy of it.
