The sixteen exquisitely crafted stories in Island prove Alistair MacLeod to be a master. Quietly, precisely, He has created a body of work that is among the greatest to appear in English in the last fifty years. A book-besotted patriarch releases his only son from the obligations of the sea. A father provokes his young son to violence when he reluctantly sells the family horse. A passionate girl who grows up on a nearly deserted island turns into an ever-wistful woman when her one true love is felled by a logging accident. A dying young man listens to his grandmother play the old Gaelic songs on her ancient violin as they both fend off the inevitable. The events that propel MacLeod's stories convince us of the importance of tradition, the beauty of the landscape, and the necessity of memory.

《世界文學》2013年第4期，非常好。
评分Reticence. Scot lit 選讀的書，值得重讀但是由於太沉重瞭以後算瞭。。。
评分讀書快且不懂得放慢速度的人就不要來侮辱這本書瞭。
评分從沒有作傢能把人、自然、動物同時寫得這麼好：布雷頓島上風霜雪暴的嚴酷鼕天，與死亡和孤獨為鄰的礦工、漁夫、伐木工人和看島人，古老的蓋爾語，母牛、羊、柯利犬。Island是麥剋勞德給那失落的傳統和時代譜寫的一麯挽歌。
评分文字充滿瞭韻律感，仿佛一首首循環往復不斷歌唱人生和感情的民謠。
