Flashes of Memory

Meer over het boek

Mary Gillanders grew up in and around the lighthouses of the Clyde in the mid-twentieth century, at a time when only the constant attention of lighthouse keepers kept ships and mariners safe. In this charmingly evocative account of her childhood, she carries us to the heart of a close and loving family and to a world governed by devotion to duty, the demands of the weather and the absolute imperative of keeping the light turning.
