Commissioned especially for Scotland’s Year of Stories, Saut an Bluid offers an inspired blend of traditional storytelling with historical fiction to tell this tale that links Scotland and Norway’s pasts together. In nine days of drama, the full smeddum of Scotland’s Norse saga unfolds in pithy Scots. As Guid King Alexander tumbles to his death, a gutsy backstory comes to the boil. And at the heart of the crisis is Skald the Ferryman, storyteller of Pittenweem. What is his connection with the Maid of Norway, and the Corryvreckan whirlpool?
‘His deep knowledge of history, myth, story, religion, landscape and literature means that he has much real richness to draw on.’ – TESSA RANSFORD Founding Director of the Scottish Poetry Library.
‘Delves into the City of Literature and comes out dark side up.’ – MARC LAMBERT, CEO of the Scottish Book Trust.
