About this listen

The most acclaimed Scottish novel of all time, Sunset Song is a powerful portrait of a land and people in turmoil, seen through the life and struggles of its heroine, Chris Guthrie.

In the years up to and beyond the First World War, Chris' resilience, like the land itself, endures despite everything and is portrayed with a lyrical intensity that echoes through the years and still resonates today.

Brought up in Aberdeenshire I hear the voices of my ancestors given life by Eileen McCallum. What a skill she has in bringing out the beauty, poetry and pain of these words. She speaks the language of the Mearns.

How can she be persuaded to read the remaining two books of the trilogy? I feel we owe it to the next generations to have these books read in the authentic voice by someone who understands the people and can act as a bridge between that world and this.
