The short story is well represented in this section in a wide range of styles from writers like Màrtainn Domhnallach, Ailean Caimbeul, Eilidh Watt etc. Included too, is one of the few full length novels ever to be published in Gaelic, Angus Robertson’s An t-Ogha Mór.

There is evidence of the persistent influence of the Rev. Norman MacLeod, ‘Caraid nan Gaidheal’, in the use of the dialogue form first popularised by him in An Teachdaire Gaelach. This may be seen in items by John Lorne Campbell and T. M. MacCalmain.

A number of sketches and short plays are listed, most of them the work of Domhnall Grannd.
