Every Emotion: Hebridean Poetry George Carle 1st edition

Living on the Hebridean Isle of Coll is far from easy. Many services taken for granted on the mainland are just not available. Summers are enjoyable but winters full of wind and rain. The very small community has its own set of problems. While George Carles poem An Island Life is a rather jaded, tongue-in-cheek look at what life is like on Coll, so many of his poems take their ethos and inspiration from his experience of life as a medical doctor living in this isolated and atmospheric region.
