People ask where Cairndhu is. Well, I thought it was in my imagination but it turns out there are places called Cairndhu. The one in the book is a thing of the past, a mining village where people were a community, worked together, played together, prayed together. I was lucky to be brought up in that atmosphere. I suppose it was being in the dark for the working shift that made us all appreciate the colours and scents of the flowers.
