His account is shaped through the prisms of the four elements – earth, air, fire and water – as a way of exploring a sense of place, home and belonging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrawing on lived experience, Macmillan presents a series of poetic narratives rooted in the landscape and community of the Isle of Lewis. These are then considered alongside psychological and philosophical perspectives, offering a broader reflection on how individuals and communities understand their past.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work also considers the role of nostalgia, and the question of what can and cannot be returned to in the context of social change and the passage of time. In doing so, it connects the experience of one community with wider questions about identity and social cohesion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAuthor: Angus Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eISBN: \u003cspan\u003e978-1-917834-04-9\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Islands Book Trust","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43013509120105,"sku":"BTE","price":12.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1276\/7279\/files\/between-the-echos.png?v=1773922000","url":"https:\/\/islandsbooktrust.org\/products\/between-the-echoes-place-home-lewis","provider":"Islands Book Trust","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
