Sobre IBD

Love Among the Ruins is a book of haiku celebrating the coming of spring. It does so among the setting of four castles on the Isle of Mull, off the western coast of Scotland. It starts amid the wintry desolate ruins of the thirteenth-century Aros Castle, moving to the empty shell of the unsafe tower-house, Moy Castle, built around 1450. It then focuses on the more modern Glengorm Castle, built where the township of Sorn once stood in 1860, and concludes with the full flowering of spring in Duart Castle, a medieval ruin rebuilt in the early twentieth century, and the seat of the Clan MacLean. The cover shows a picture of Aros Castle.
