Wirds & Whisky

Summary: “WIRDS & WHISKY encourages a re-examination of what we use to identify "culture." The selection of Scots words of phrases I this book describe the vibrant, unifying and ever-changing nature of language. The narrative quality of these words places alongside the stories of a selected group of whisky brands and replicated family photos, ask the reader to play with memory and artifact, public and private experience and to question the significance of cultural genealogy today.” -- verso.
