Review:
"Readers will be carried away on successive waves of pleasure . . . these stories have an irresistible holistic beauty" (Seamus Heaney)

"A splendid resurrection of a life that has almost vanished" (Daily Telegraph)

"I know of few books which so ably open a window on the Gaelic scene today or which so faithfully reflect the mind, vigour and courtesy of its people . . . Pounds on the imagination like surf on a reef" (The Observer)
Book Description:
With an introduction by Seamus Heaney
