Autorenporträt
Lewis Grassic Gibbon (1901–1935), born James Leslie Mitchell, was a seminal Scottish author whose works were pivotal in defining early 20th-century Scottish literature. Gibbon is best known for his critically acclaimed trilogy 'A Scots Quair', with 'Grey Granite' concluding the series, preceded by 'Sunset Song' and 'Cloud Howe'. Exhibiting a distinctive narrative style, Gibbon's writing often depicted the social, cultural, and economic transformations taking place in Scotland during his lifetime. His influence on subsequent Scottish writers is significant, as he deftly combined a rich use of Scots dialect with a modernist literary approach. 'Grey Granite' reflects this maturity, offering a stark and profound exploration of urban labor and existential challenges in an increasingly industrialized landscape. Gibbon's works chronicle the stark realities of Scottish life with a lyrical beauty that has earned him a revered place among 20th-century Scottish literati. His passing at an early age curtailed a promising literary career, yet his contributions have endured, marking him as a notable figure in Scottish history and letters.
