'Taking You Home' is Andrew Mitchell\u2019s tribute to Iain Crichton Smith and Derick Thomson. Born in Staffin, where he now lives, Maoilios Caimbeul did not learn to write Gaelic until the 60s, (Gaelic not being on offer in school), although he could speak and read the language since childhood. His poetry is internationally acclaimed and represented in An Tuil, Ronald Black's Anthology of 20th Century Scottish Gaelic Verse (Polygon, 2002). Andrew Mitchell's English and Gaelic newly-published poem sequence, Taking You Home, draws upon island culture and the work of two highly acclaimed poets from Bayble in Lewis, and includes their reflections on island life as presented on the BBC Radio 4 Kaleidoscope Feature How Many Miles From Bayble in 1995. The evening will be in Engliash and Gaelic with translation facilities.<p><small>Date: 16\/07\/07<br\/><\/small><small>Start Time: 4.30 pm<br\/><\/small><small>Venue: Armadale Castle, Somerled Rooms<br\/><\/small><small>Audience Numbers: 0<br\/><\/small><small>Type: Talks and Literature<br\/><\/small><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1200","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1200","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1200"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1200\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sleat.openvirtualworlds.org\/wordpress\/seall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1200"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
