LORNA MOON BORN STRICHEN 1886, DIED NEW MEXICO 1930 BY KAY CLIVE Lorna Moon, she liked the ring of it, transformed from Nora Helen Wilson Low. Names need to have a resonance, a fit and this could take her where she yearned to go. “Shameless”, they called her in the staid wee town, between the Buchan farmland and the sea, writing about the folk she’d always known probing pretence, revealing oddity. The library refused to stock her book - the quine whose scripts had dazzled Hollywood was shunned in Strichen. They could not overlook that searing light that showed more than it should. She planned a journey home when gravely ill, her ashes in a “trochie”, back to Mormond Hill.
