The superbly crafted stories collected in Alistair MacLeod’s As Birds Bring Forth the Sun and Other Stories depict men and women acting out their “own peculiar mortality” against the haunting landscape of Cape Breton Island. In a voice at once elegiac and life-affirming, MacLeod describes a vital present inhabited by the unquiet spirits of a Highland past, invoking memory and myth to celebrate the continuity of the generations even in the midst of unremitting change. His second collection, As Birds Bring Forth the Sun and Other Stories confirms MacLeod’s international reputation as a storyteller of rare talent and inspiration. From the Trade Paperback edition.

MacLeod's depends much on emotion. The referencing of culture and family throughout not just generations but centuries is the glue that holds his work together. Beyond that he is fine writer and his stories fit together seamlessly into a whole. There is humor and sometimes much sadness but what comes out strongest may be the resilience of the people he writes about. I really like all of his work and would recommend it to anyone and everyone. ( )
