Bicket, Linden. The Short Stories of George Mackay Brown. Scotnotes, 34. Glasgow: Association for Scottish Literary Studies, 2014.
Paperback.
Publisher's abstract: "George Mackay Brown's work is full of a deeply evocative sense of place and history; his work shows a deep respect for, and love of the natural world, but he is always conscious that there is a spiritual, supernatural dimension to reality. In his short stories especially, there is always the possibility of grace for his characters. Linden Bicket's Scotnote examines ten of Mackay Brown's short stories, from across his long writing career, and explores their themes and characters."
