These haiku offer an intense Gothic celebration of summer. There are portraits of four separate graveyards in the Highlands; interspersed with evocations of the light and beauty of the Summer Isles; standing stones at the Clava Cairns just outside Inverness, and Callanish in Lewis; the memory of Somerled, a twelfth-century Norse-Gaelic warrior who ruled the Western Isles; and the crumbling of sandcastles on the last Bank Holiday of August.
