Stravaigin   Luath Press Ltd     ISBN 190522270X
At the core of this wide-ranging collection of poems is the notion of the Scots as a community of 'stravaigers' or wanderers within as well as beyond Scotland's borders. Liz Niven draws on a variety or resources - the history of the Scots, her personal roots and the contemporary landscape - and moves outward, through various foreign cultures and many moods, to view the world through distinctly Scottish eyes.
