A Literary Guide to Ireland
A “entertaining,” “beguiling,” and “perceptive” guide to the literary landscape of Ireland’s greatest writers – Swift, Yeats, Joyce, Synge, Behan, Lavin. “Americans . . . have needed a book like this for years. It’s a pleasure to report that A Literary Guide to Ireland is well worth the wait: it will be long time before the relationship of Irish literature to Irish topography needs to be surveyed again.”-Vivian Mercer , Saturday Review of Literature
“The most delightful book of the year.”-Commonweal
“One of the best ‘guides’ to Ireland . . . chosen and edited with sensitivity and intelligence. . . . Delightfully, the Cahills introduce the glories of Irish folklore and imagination . . . “-Publishers Weekly
