Soor Plooms and Sair Knees is an hilarious and moving recollection of the writer’s childhood in a small Scottish east coast town during the immediate post-war years. In this warm-hearted, funny, and magnificent portrait, Bob Dewar recalls the community spirit of 1940s Scotland with perfectly balanced nostalgic recollections and glorious illustrations. Touching and illuminating, he brilliantly recalls details large and small, from stand-your-spoon-up Scotch broth, to olive oil bought from the chemist to clean out your ears or to be used as suntan oil. Wonderfully unique and richly evocative, this book is an inimitable tribute to a vanished but much loved way of life.
