Dolina: An Island Girl's Journey

Dolina Maclennan, well known singer, actress, and storyteller of national and indeed international renown. In this sensitive and very personal account, Dolina looks back on some of the forces which moulded her, from her childhood in a traditional Gaelic-speaking community in rural Lewis to her friendship with many of the great figures of the Scottish literary and artistic scene over the past half century. Dolina has all the qualities of the traditional Gaelic story-teller, steeped in island heritage and culture. Her authentic voice rings out loud and clear in these memories - in a way which is simultaneously simple, powerful, and very moving.
