Read Unlikely Stories Mostly Storyline:
Too clever for its own good in parts, but otherwise a damned good read.' Col. Sebastian Moran in the Simla Times'This anthology may be likened to a vast architectural folly imblending the idioms of the Greek, Gothic, Oriental, Baroque, Scottish Baronial and Bauhaus schools. Like one who, absently sauntering the streets of Barcelona, suddenly beholds the breathtaking grandeur of Gaudi's Familia Sagrada, I am compelled to admire a display of power and intricacy whose precise purpose evades me. Is the structure haunted by a truth too exalted and ghostly to dwell in a plainer edifice? Perhaps. I wonder. I doubt.' Lady Nicola Stewart, Countess of Dunfermline in The Celtic NeedlewomanAlasdair Gray's most playful book earned a place in this Classic Series by being in print since first published by Canongate in 1983. This completely amended edition has two new stories; also a postscript by the author and Douglas Gifford.Pages of Unlikely Stories Mostly :
