Sorley MacLean - Dain Do Eimhir agus Dain Eile/ Poems to Eimhir and Other Poems
If Hugh MacDiarmid was the saviour of the Scots language, then Sorley Maclean was the saviour of the Gaelic language. Poems to Eimhir and Other Poems is ample evidence of this. It consists of a sequence of forty-eight love poems and is as powerful and insightful as any collection of love poetry written in the 20th century.
