Rabbie Burns is indisputably (well we're certainly not disputing it) Scotland's favourite poet. Indeed, he's ranked amongst the world's greatest poets of all time, having produced many works of pure genius: 'Auld Lang Syne', 'Tam O' Shanter' and 'A Red, Red Rose' to name but a few. However, the poems in NO' RABBIE BURNS, if you haven't already guessed it from the title, were not written by Rabbie Burns. But they are funny ... and Scottish ... and include 'Picts Rule', 'Owed to a Bank Manager', 'Tae a Wee Fat Bastard' and 'The Big Issue Seller'... Enjoy!

Poet, romantic, lover and carouser.Robert Burns blazed into Edinburgh in 1786 like a comet. The seat of the Scottish Enlightenment was electrified by the arrival of the ploughman poet and his free-thinking accounts of 18th century peasant life.But while Burns' tinder heart was often set alight, he found his love poems failed to have the desired effect on the "lively half of mankind," as the capital's refined ladies kept this force of nature at arm's length.Join Burns on his adventures in this historical novella told through the eyes of his young companion, John Bruce.In a town where you could hit "50 geniuses, 50 bankers, 50 lawyers and 50 rogues" with a pistol at any given hour, meet the infamous Deacon Brodie and the Crochallan Fencibles drinking club, and learn the cause of the rift between the poet and his young protégé - Clarinda, inspiration for one of his finest love tales, Ae Fond Kiss.

The Scottish poet Robert Burns has been idolised and eulogised. He has been sainted, painted, tarted-up and toasted. He is famous as the author of 'Auld Lang Syne', and he has long been the patron saint of the heartsore and the hungover. But what about the poems? Beneath the cult of Burns Nights and patriotic yawps, there is the work itself, among the purest and most truthful created in any age. This is a Burns collection like no other, introduced, arranged and contextualised by the award-winning novelist and essayist Andrew O'Hagan. Above all, it is an accessible edition made for the pleasure of reading that brings Burns' timeless work to full, riotous, colourful life.

Today Robert Burns is widely regarded as the national poet of Scotland, and people all over the world annually celebrate Burns Night on 25 January. Famous now for Auld Lang Syne, Scots Wha Hae, and A Man's A Man for A' That, Rabbie inspires Scots to be proud of Scotland. When he arrived in Edinburgh in November 1786 Burns was unknown, but within days the 'Ploughman Poet' was the talk of the capital, mixing in a circle of wealthy and important new friends. Edinburgh was changing quickly and it was the time of the Scottish Enlightenment, a period of great intellectual and scientific achievement. Burns' experiences during his stay in Edinburgh, including love affairs and fathering illegitimate children, were to influence much of his work to come. His friendship with Agnes 'Nancy' McLehose led to the poem, Ae Fond Kiss, among others. To capture the events of these vital months, three Burns enthusiasts from Glasgow - Jerry Brannigan, John McShane and David Alexander - have newly researched this period in Burns' life for this book. Gain a sense of this fascinating man, city and time by dipping into this book as you stroll through the capital, or by reading it at your leisure. Book jacket.
