| Notes: | dynamic adaptation of one of the finest novels ever written in Scotland, Robin Jenkins' Fergus Lamont. In this adaptation of Robin Jenkins’s most searching exploration of the modern psyche, Communicado create not just an unforgettable character, but an image of Scotland and what it is to be Scots. | |||||
| Synopsis: | From his origins as an illegitimate child in the slums of Glasgow, Fergus Lamont sets out to reclaim his inheritance and to remake his identity as a soldier, poet and would-be aristocrat. Covering the years from the turn of the century to the second world war, Fergus' unforgettable voice recounts a tale of vanity, success and betrayal which shines its own sardonic light on Scotland and the cultural and political issues of the day. At odds with his origins, hag-ridden by a creative ego, and unsettled in his aristocratic pretensions, Fergus Lamont reaches middle age before he is offered at least the hope of redemption in a love affair with an island woman. | |||||
