Marianne Brown & Joni Buchanan: No Woman is an Island

Dive into history, the environment, and the Scottish Isles in this conversation with environmental journalist Marianne Brown and Gaelic Literature Awards­-shortlisted Joni Buchanan. In The Shetland Way, Brown arrives on Shetland for her father's funeral then can't leave due to lockdown; there, a new windfarm's development causes tension as islanders fear for their fragile local environment. Meanwhile, in Women of the Hebrides, Buchanan tells of women's historic contribution to these islands in English and Gaelic. Chaired by Jen Stout.
