Seven years after her mother’s death, Leonie Charlton is still gripped by memories of their fraught relationship. Marram tells the story of Leonie's journey through the Outer Hebrides in the company of a friend and their Highland ponies in search of closure.

'Beautiful, meditative memoir.' – Sunday Express

From the southern tip of Barra to the ancient stone circle of Callanish, Leonie Charlton and her friend Shuna ride off the beaten track on their beloved Highland ponies, Ross and Chief. In deeply poetic prose, in Marram Leonie not only describes the beauties of the Hebridean landscape, its spare, penetrating light and its people, but also confronts the ghost of her mother and their fractured relationship.

Leonie Charlton travelled extensively as a child, living in England, Africa, Wales and Scotland. She has worked as a cowgirl in Australia, an English teacher in Japan, and her degree in Hispanic Studies took her to Catalonia for two years. Marram is her first full length book although her fiction and poetry have appeared widely in magazines.
