Author(s):

Published in 2006 and long-listed for that year’s Booker Prize, this is a story about grief and the crisis of faith in Scottish society, told through the life of the Reverend Gideon Mack of Monimaskit.
A story of late 20th century postwar Scotland, of the manse and the permissive age, a story of a Church of Scotland minister who doesn’t believe in God. Then he meets the Devil.
