In the tradition of classic storytelling, Neil Rackham’s new book gathers many stories and names round ‘second sight’ and one powerful ‘seer stone’. Most famously the prophecies of Coinneach Odhar the semi-mythical Brahan Seer – ‘the Gaelic Nostradamus’.
Launching at Faclan: the Hebridean Book Festival, A Telling of Stones is the latest title from Lewis-based publishers Acair, who will also host a reception later in the day.
