A Tale of Scottish Rural Life
Lewis Grassic Gibbons Sunset Song was voted the best Scottish novel of all timeby Scottishs reading public in 20051 Once considered shocking for its frank description of aspects of the lives of Scotlands poor rural farmers，it has been adapted for stage，film，TV and radio in recent decades.
Grassic Gibbon gives us the most detailed and intimate account of the life of his heroine.We watch her grow through a childhood dominated by her cruel but hard-working father;experience tragedy ;and learn about her feelings as she grows into woman.We see her marry，lose her husband，then marry again.Chris has seemed so convincing a figure to some female readers that they cannot believe that she is the creation of a man2.
The story itself is amazingly full of characters and incidents.It is told from Chris point of view but also from that of the gossiping community，a community where everybody knows everybody elses business and nothing is ever forgotten.
If the novel is about the end of one way of life it also looks ahead.It is a Sunset Songbut is concerned too with the new Kinraddie，indeed of the new European world.Grassic Gibbon went on to publish two other novels about the place that continue its story.
