Beyond Fort William, on the road to the Isles, lies Morar, the Highlands of the Highlands and centre of the Rough Bounds, that wild, desolate, but uniquely beautiful part of Scotland that was once the homeland of the Clan Macdonald of Clanranald, Lords of the Isles. Inspired by bards, writers and images of the past, Alasdair Roberts has collected and revitalised a huge number of traditional tales which transport the reader to the heart of this remote and beguiling landscape. Tales of the Morar Highlands is a book packed with extraordinary incident and remarkable characters, from mysterious loch monsters and fugitive princes to lords, priests and smugglers, as well as the ordinary people who have made this fascinating part of Scotland their home for thousands of years.

On this dark, psychological journey through toxic femininity and biological obsession, the boundaries between pleasure and power are utterly blurred. To Elin, men are nothing more than pawns to be moved with cold precision.What begins as an innocent flirtation and classical erotica is, in reality, the inception of a cold-blooded power play. Through intense manipulation and bodily temptation, Elin lures her victim into a web where the lines between pleasure and power are utterly blurred.The novel is a raw drama of human drives, where Elins outward romance is merely a shimmering facade for a toxic reality. But as the chaos she orchestrates reaches its peak, a hidden truth lurks in the shadows, a truth of being loved by someone, only to move a step closer to the ultimate goal: a biological triumph and turning her dark dream into reality.From the book:"Elin took the pen as she read the document. With a firm hand, she scrawled her name across the bottom of the paper. Formally declining to confirm a crime and waiving her right to pursue him. Mark, the man she had intended to bleed dry, had managed to crawl out of her web alive..."

Sono diciassette i racconti che compongono questa antologia, diciassette narrazioni intimiste, narrate in prima persona, quasi dei monologhi. Scaturiscono da complicate vicissitudini ad eventi imponderabili che conducono ad una sfida spesso cruciale. Lesito talvolta e drammatico, a volte tragicomico o grottesco. I protagonisti di queste storie hanno un lato stravagante, in fondo inquietante, dissimulato sotto unapparenza di normalita. Non a caso gli eventi di tutti i giorni si confondono con il sogno, la fantasia, lallucinazione: qui si cela lintrigo - perche la quotidiana apparenza cela quasi sempre un mistero, e sta allosservatore perspicace (e al lettore attento) coglierlo.

Arisiag and Morar, Norse and Gaelic, the river-mouth bay and the great water, part of na garbh Chriochan (The Rough Bounds), an area so rugged and desolate it was itself known as the Highlands of the Highlands. From Borrodale (fort-dale) to Kilmory (Maelrubhas chapel), from Druimindarroch (oak-tree ridge) to Eireagoraidh (shieling-corrie), the place-names echo the story of the landscape. This harsh environment was at the heart of the old Macruari and Clanranald estate; this was where Bonnie Prince Charlie first landed and last departed, where fugitive Jacobites skulked and languished, where the great poet Alexander Macdonald breathed his last lines, and whence the sail-ships Jane, Lucy and British Queen carried so many hopes to the New World. Where, despite clearance and emigration, potato blight and deer forest, poverty and hardship, a new road and railway were eventually driven, a fishing industry flourished, and where communities survived.

Det var en stille sndag i efterret, mod sidstningen af August den Andens regeringstid, da Theodor Hirschberger med en vadsk p ryggen, kldt som en rejsende student, vandrede fra Neustadt over Elbbroen ind i det egentlige Dresden. Solen nrmede sig allerede til horisonten, og den forbi-ilende flod glimtede gylden i aftenglansen. P begge sider af Elbbroen stod bnke for fodgngere; p en af disse bnke satte Theodor sig og lod sin vadsk nedglide ved sin fod, idet han betragtede den for ham ubekendte by og lyttede til klokkerne, der ld fra de omkringliggende trne. Pludselig afbrdes den ensformige lyd af et mgtigt sangvrk, der klang fra den nyligt opbyggede Mariakirke, og som den gang tonede prgtigt, sknt det i senere tider ikke mere hres. Uagtet det stive og mekaniske i dette spil, hvilket lettelig trtter, nr det oftere hres, s vidste dog de i forskellige toner klingende metaltunger hjt i luften at opfre en musik, der ikke kunne forfejle sin virkning p den, der, lig Theodor, for frste gang lyttede dertil. Han lnede sig tilbage p bnken, mens klokkespillet snart tonede strkere, snart syntes at hend og forsvinde; men nr sangvrket havde tiet en stund, hrtes pludselig igen et par strke klokkeslag, til hvilke et nyt musikstykke knyttede sig; mangfoldige toner rev sig da p ny ls fra metallet og vuggede sig igennem luften. Dette spil varede nsten en time, da klang endelig tre strke akkorder, der sluttede det hele. Theodor blev endnu nogle jeblikke siddende, uvis om det ville begynde igen; ja al denne klang forekom ham nsten som en rst, der i dunkle ord varslede om tilkommende hndelser, og ligesom de fjernere klokkers ensformige lyd kun syntes at stemme overens med det almindelige menneskelivs jvne gang, s vakte de afvekslende toner fra det nrliggende sangvrk en anelse hos ham om en eventyrlig fremtid, der ventede ham selv; men hvad han sledes oplevede i sit indre, var han dog kort efter lige s lidt i stand til at aflgge regnskab for, som vi ofte om morgenen er i stand til at huske, hvad der noget tidligere i drmme p det strkeste har grebet vor sjl.
