The Time Horse : Life, Laughs, Lows, & Literature

See all formats and editions

Three brothers doing their poetic and literary thing, with interaction between them. It is what they do.
The topic is time, as related to the process of being born, aging, and then dying.

Essentially, it is a prose and poetry memoir of three brothers who display their literary talents throughout.
The Horse of Time being the general theme from beginning to then end. From go to whoa.

With some globe-trotting, the book includes many tales and humorous anecdotes from the Vale of Leven, especially around Balloch and picturesque Loch Lomond. And though mainly in English, it also features some poetry in Scottish Gaelic and prose in Irish.

The reader is invited to join Fergie, Stuart, and Neil as they go on their "pony-trek" across time in their lives. Along the way, there will be lots of serious conversation, interspersed with light-hearted banter, interrupted by tongue-in-cheek craic, and punctuated by outright laughter - just as you would expect when travelling in the company of poets, artists, writers, authors, journalists, theologians, philosophers, satirists, linguists, humourists, Scots, Canadians, and Australians.

You may wish to start simply by looking at the pictures...

Three lives for three brothers:
Wit and wishful thinking
on a Scots-Canadian journey from here to posterity...
