  • The first book (I believe) to be written using some Scottish dialect was Sunset Song and is considered to be a classic. I read it when I was younger and thought it was OK. I probably should give it another go though.

  • A book I loved was How Late It Was How Late which captures the internal dialogue of a Glaswegian through his various trials and tribulations. It (controversially) won the Man Booker prize in 1994.

  • I also loved The Testament of Gideon Mack by James Robertson. I can't remember if it is written in Scots, but I'm fairly sure it is. I think James Robertson is a great author and I've never read a duff book of his yet. I loved And the Land Lay Still. The Fanatic was really interesting and I'm currently reading Joseph Knight.

  • Swing Hammer Swing! was pretty enjoyable.

  • Budda Da was pretty good, worth a read.

    Good luck in finding something else you enjoy reading!
