A Poetic Masterpiece of Scotland's Grit.

In the shadow of 1930's Scotland's scrumbling mining industry, Jack, a miner shattered by his son's death from pneumonia, joins desperate comrades seeking a better life on a perilous Artic Fishing boat. Silent Riders of the Sea by John Gerard Fagan is a haunting verse novel that captures the raw pulse of Scotland's working class struggle. Fagan's spare, evocative prose has been praised as "beautiful but bleak" and "powerful yet kind" and has been compared to Cormac McCarthy's. Silent Riders of The Sea has been illustrated by the Author and is an amazing blending of Scottish working-class grit with the relentless cruelty of nature and survival on a gruesome Arctic fishing boat. Perfect for fans of nautical literature and gritty historical sagas such as Angela's Ashes
