Jeff Torrington

Author; Born December 31, 1935; Died May 11, 2008. JEFF Torrington, who has died aged 72, published only two books in his lifetime yet is one of contemporary Scotland's best-loved writers. It is striking the affection with which he is regarded, testament to the tremendous exuberance of his work. It derives from a confidence that reveals something of the best of us. Maybe we respond to that in his work.
