The Mermaid Bride and Other Orkney Folk Tales
Book description
Why read it?
1 author picked The Mermaid Bride and Other Orkney Folk Tales as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love this book because it takes me to the far north (where I used to live).
It takes me back to the wide skies, jagged cliffs, pounding waves, miles of rough open land, and seals gazing at you from every bay and cove. I love reading old traditional tales because, as a writer, they feed me, and give me ideas for new stories.
From Janis' list on evoking the sea and shore.
