Edinburgh: Canongate, 1988. Paperback. Very Good. A 'gowk storm' is an untimely fall of snow in early Spring - a fitting symb ol for the anguished story that unfolds in this novel. Like Chekov's famous play, and even more like the real-life Brontës whose story she told in ano ther book, Morrisson tells the story of three girls who were born to a mini ster and his wife in a remote Highland manse, nearly a hundred years ago. I t is narrated by the youngest sister, Lisbet, who describes the love affair s of her older sisters, Julia and Emmy, each of whom falls in love with a m an deemed an unacceptable match by their patriarchal, rigid and prejudiced society. These societal strictures are set against approaching womanhood, t he growing awareness of a life beyond the safety of home, and the wild beau ty of the surrounding countryside.
