Episode 4
This programme looks at how the world of the Gael changed in the years following World War I and also how writers have responded to the war 100 years on. In 'Song for the Pupils of Carinish School-2014', writer Norman Maclean uses a tragic incident from his family history to question whether it is ever worth going to war. A photograph of John McDiarmid's great grandfather, also called John McDiarmid, provided him with the inspiration to write the poem 'Hands Like Shovels'.
