What is recorded here
Wicker Lady at Lews Castle is a castle, fort or tower in Na h-Eileanan Siar, Scotland. Perhaps the wicker lady still stands inside the castle chamber, waiting for a keeper who remembers her name. Maybe her ribs are bent reeds and her hands are knotted rope, shaping every room before stone or fire touches it. Imagine her voice coming through wood and water, calling the castle into life each time someone stops to listen.
