This new study of Jenkins includes essays across his entire, astonishingly varied body of work. It includes provocative new readings of a range of thematic issues by established experts on Jenkins and on Scottish Literature more broadly. This volume also includes chapters dedicated to individual novels in Jenkins?s corpus, including his best-known work, The Cone-Gatherers , as well as The Changeling, Fergus Lamont , and his posthumous novel, The Pearl Fishers .
