There is also a new character: a young Italian woman called Emanuela, aka “Granny”, an appalling hypochondriac who believes that the local cows hate her. In Italy her eccentricities attract scorn and ostracism. In Wigtown she fits right in. Although she has spent her formative years surrounded by the baroque splendours of Turin, nothing impresses her more than the local supermarket: “How I love de Co-op. De people is so friendly, and it have everyfink. I spend one hour in there every day from now on.”'

Thursday- over the sea to Skye for standout launch of Time for the Dead, the latest in the Rhona MacLeod series, this one set on the island. Author Lin Anderson upstaged at the event at Portree Library by Blaze (who has a leading canine role in the novel). Afterwards Lin introduced editor Alex Saunders of PanMacmillan to delights of Talisker whisky and Steve of ACE Target Sports introduced us to axe throwing. My seventh attempt was a bullseye.

Welcome to Constitution Street,Edinburgh. The street, like the world at large, is in a moment of flux. Part memoir, part social history and a call to action, Constitution Street is an antidote to an age of personal and political anxiety. Here, the real-life stories on one street, shared with authorJemma Neville, reveal the courage, perseverance and capacity for love within us all. Neighbour by neighbour, street by street, reclaiming our human rights, as something too important to be left solely to lawyers and politicians, will unite us with our sense of belonging and common purpose.

‘The language was soothing. The elders spoke softly, making sounds like wood gently knocked on wood. Through the window, a green rib of tundra, a wall of mountains. The objects were turned, demonstrated. The last time they had been touched by Yup’ik hands and named like this was five hundred years ago.’ Kathleen Jamie’s luminous new essay collection offers a profound sense of time passing and an antidote to all that is instant, ephemeral, unrooted.

A Taste Of Scotland’s Islands, the new book by Sue Lawrence : ‘a personal culinary tour, a discovery of wonderful cooking on some of Scotland’s many idyllic islands. It is partly my tribute to the wild beauty of the islands and to their people, mostly, however, it is a celebration of their food’.

Morning post brings this fabulous finished copy of This Golden Fleece :A Journey Through Britain’s Knitted History by Esther Rutter, published by Granta on 5 September.
Lovely endorsement from Janice Galloway: ‘This beautifully written and woven together history by Esther Rutter whose own skill with needles is learned from practical experience, attests that the ancient craft of knitting is nothing less than a wonder of civilisation.’

"I knew that I would fall in love with this book as soon as I had read the first few pages and I sat about for a long while once it was over, wondering how on earth my review could do this book justice. This is historical fiction at its very best." – https://t.co/nxMyBPdoDF
