The poetry collection The Keelie Hawk is a landmark in Scottish literature by Kathleen Jamie, former Makar (National Poet) of Scotland. For the first time, Kathleen Jamie expressed her astonishing talent in the language of her homeland, with extraordinary results. The collection is deeply resonant and written in Scots, with each poem accompanied by an English translation. The publication of this collection is a significant event in Scottish literature, as it reclaims the musicality of the literary language and promotes this language: 'with the creation of poems, a language develops,' Jamie notes in an interesting afterword.
