Lewis Grassic Gibbon (1901-1935) schrieb mit »Wind und Wolkenlicht« die Geschichte von Chris Guthrie aus »Lied vom Abendrot« fort. Nach dem Tod ihres ersten Mannes heiratet Chris den Idealisten Robert Colquohoun und zieht mit ihm und ihrem Sohn Ewan in die Kleinstadt Segget, wo Robert eine Pastorenstelle annimmt. Chris hadert mit ihrer Rolle als Pastorenfrau, die Sehnsucht nach der weiten Landschaft ihrer Kindheit, die ihr Freiheit und Ungebundenheit bedeutet, lässt sie nicht los. Gibbon entwirft in dem kleinstädtischen Segget eine Galerie eigenwilliger Charaktere: darunter der frömmelnde Postmeister MacDougall Brown, Klatschbase Ag Moultrie, Großbauer Dalziel und nicht zuletzt die Arbeiter der Jutespinnerei, die gegen unumstößlich scheinende Hierarchien aufbegehren. Vor dem Hintergrund des gescheiterten Generalstreiks 1926 zeichnet Lewis Grassic Gibbon mit liebevoller, oft harscher Komik das Bild einer Gesellschaft im Netz von tradierten Privilegien und Unterdrückung. Die ungewöhnliche kollektive Erzählstimme treibt den Fluss der Geschichte voran und schaut den Figuren in die Köpfe. Klatsch, Gerüchte und persönliche Animositäten bestimmen in rhythmischen Satzketten, im Original teilweise im schottischen Dialekt, das Miteinander und stellen vor allem eines in Frage: historische Wahrheit. Esther Kinsky bietet in ihrer prachtvollen, vielstimmigen Übersetzung Klänge, Farben, Derbheiten und zarte Schönheiten des Deutschen auf, von denen wir gar nicht wussten. Es ist diese überwältigende, reiche Sprache, die im Roman die sozialen und politischen Spannungen einer Gesellschaft im Wandel überwindet.

High quality sheepskin!!
Color: Natural (Yellow-white Ivory), Size: 2' x 3' (Natural), Color: Natural (Yellow-white Ivory), Size: 2' x 3' (Natural)
This sheepskin was purchased as a "chair cover" for my pets. It arrived with very nice packaging, along with detailed care instructions. The sheepskin was advertised as being"not white" online, and the company made very sure to state that the fur has an "off white/yellow" color. That was a little concerning for me, and I wasn't really sure whether it would have an off color, but it arrived exactly as described. There were no obvious discolorations, spots, or blemishes. In fact, it arrived as a soft "off white" color that is very beautiful and exquisite. The fur has a plush, even look, and there is no matting or fuzzy, "neglected teddy bear look" at all! I actually purchased another brand to see if I could distinguish the difference between the two. This particular sheepskin is by far the better of the two purchases. FYI: When the package was opened, there was no distinct odor. That's a huge plus! I will admit that the size was slightly smaller than expected. It really doesn't matter much in the space I'm using it for though. My miniature Dachshund loves it! If you're trying to find a high quality sheepskin, and you don't need to cover a very large space, this is definitely the one to buy!

The Quality of the sheepskin is awesome.
Color: Wolf Tip, Size: 2' x 3' (Natural)
This rug is a beautiful specimen of New Zealand sheep. The rug is very very soft, the rug is thick, and the brown tips are fabulous looking. All in all I'm very pleased with this purchase. The size is perfect as it measures 2' x 3'. I would buy again from this seller.

Plush rug that’s super soft. WOW!
Color: Natural (Yellow-white Ivory), Size: 6' x 7' (Natural)
Beautiful and super plush! I use it as an outer blanket when cold weather camping. Like a modern day cave man. One of my favorite purchases. I avoid kneeling on it while it’s on my mattress fearing it might split the hide, or damage the stitching. It fits my queen size camper bed. Cant say enough!

Big Investment for a Lifetime of Quality
Color: Natural (Yellow-white Ivory), Size: 2' x 3' (Natural)
Several reviews mentioned a smell lingering with the sheepskin even after being unpacked a few days. I did notice the smell when I unpacked it, but I would expect a slight odor from such an item. It was not overpowering and is completely gone after one month of having it laid out on a chest in our bedroom. It is very functional, can be sat on, knelt on, etc, but is easily brushed off and looks great! The quality is very good…someone in my family is on it every night, and we have experienced no shedding whatsoever. Although the price is a big investment initially, I believe the quality is worthy. We plan to enjoy this beautiful sheepskin for a lifetime!
