Testifying to the experience of a generation, it resonates with the classic motifs of adventure and return. The Chosen Garden, represents a huge step forward for O'Siadhail. At once a spiritual re-enactment and an exorcism of the poet's past life, the sequence rests assured in a controlled sensuousness of language and comes as near as poetry can, without being confessional, to conveying the overtones and textures of actual experience - Anne Stevenson.

Hardcover. Condition: Fair. No Dust Jacket. Third Edition. "Isabel 'Ida' Deane Mitchell (1879 1917) was an Irish Presbyterian medical missionary in China. She set sail for China in the autumn of 1905 to take up a post as missionary for the Women's Association of Foreign Missions of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland. In November 1905 she reached the mission station in Fakumen, immediately taking up lessons in Mandarin. Upon her death from diptheria, a local Christian leader stated that 'Our doctor has given her life for us. For twelve years she has been at the call of any one who suffered. She was like a man in her strength, and rose at any hour of the night or day to help us. Her name is known and revered through all this country.'" - Wikipedia. "Composed chiefly of her private letters to her mother and her sister. These letters were not intended for publication. They are all the more revealing and intimate on that account. They tell, as no other narrative could do, the story of her eleven and a half years of pioneer service, by which from small beginnings she built up a great mission Hospital." - Editor's Note.
