I loved this book. It was both subtle & descriptive. The ability to write about such a poverty stricken life without any hint of pity-searching, shows how great a talent Galloway is. I truly recommend this for a piece of hidden Scottish social history. It is not glamorized misery lit, it is a tale of a child's wonder & wit, whilst waiting to mature.
