Inhaltsangabe

What if the people love the land and the land loves them back?

For eons Margie has tended the land in her quiet glen, deep in the Scottish Highlands. Margie, whose incorporeal self is made of equal parts mist and wonder, has always reveled in the rhythms of nature’s growth and decay. But one day she must watch with wide-eyed fascination (yes, imagine with me that the mist has eyes) as her glen changes with the arrival of a small family of humans. As the centuries stretch on and historical events roll across the Isle of Mist, Margie learns what it is for people and place to belong to each other. But what happens when the land is taken away from the people who loved it? Does the land miss its displaced people?

A Mist Sprite's Study of Being Human is an experimental literary novella as ethereal as a mist sprite. Equal parts history and fairy tale, it offers an achingly beautiful insight into the Highland Clearances from the perspective of the place and its poets. While Margie’s story is tied to a particular glen, it echoes the pangs of displacement throughout time. Margie invites readers to see the world as she does, and leaves those who encounter this story as she is -- forever changed.
