Born in County Monaghan, Freddy Anderson (1928-2002) came to Glasgow after the war and was a well-known figure in the city and amongst the Scottish literary scene. This is the first collected edition of his works including his poems, the novel Oiney Hoy and the award-winning play about John Maclean, Krassivy.


‘In his hatred of cant, hypocrisy and craven self-interest he belongs to a long line of courageous radical poets whose most famous members include Byron and Burns, not forgetting Woody Guthrie [and] in this long and rebellious line Freddy has earned an honourable place’ HAMISH HENDERSON
