Memories of Lewis #4. Farewell to the beautiful Isle of Lewis (bottom pic is the Scottish mainland). Iโd like to thank Roddy, Elly, Kathryn, Moira, David and everyone at an Lanntair for inviting me and making me feel so welcome. In all honesty, Iโve never enjoyed attending a book festival as much as Faclan. Thanks to all the other guests for being fascinating, formidable, enlightening and insightful. Who knew that the festivalโs theme of oceanic loneliness would inspire such warm and welcoming exchanges? I hope to return to the island one day.
