Jessie Kesson wrote for the Scots Magazine with the assistance of Neil Gunn and she also produced Women’s Hour on BBC radio. Her writing reflects the hardship of her own life, but the Daily Telegraph wrote, “Miss Kesson writes beautifully, her strong, delicate prose full of poetry and humour.
She wrote The White Bird Passes in 1958. Even though this novel has been adapted for television and Scottish poet has encouraged all to “beg, borrow or steal this book,” it gathers dust on library shelves.
Read this fine piece of literature before the bookwraith claims another victim.
