Download or read book Distance and Memory written by Peter Davidson and published by Carcanet. This book was released on 2013-06-27 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about remoteness: a memoir of places observed in solitude, of the texture of life through the quiet course of the seasons in the far north of Scotland. It is a book grounded in the singularity of one place - a house in northern Aberdeenshire - and threaded through with an unshowy commitment to the lost and the forgotten. In these painterly essays Davidson reflects on art, place, history and landscape. Distance and Memory is his testament to the cold, clear beauty of the north.
