About this title

Synopsis

Written in the musical speech of the poet's home region of Kiltartan, County Galway, this collection of stories centers on country schoolmaster Red Hanrahan and his supernatural experiences. William Butler Yeats recounts "The Twisting of the Rope," "Red Hanrahan's Curse," "Hanrahan’s Vision," and other enchanting tales.
Additional fables include those of The Secret Rose and Rosa Alchemica, featuring Yeats's personal interpretations of Celtic mythology and occult legends. These engaging fantasies will particularly appeal to those with a taste for Celtic/Irish stories, fairy tales, and yarns with an air of the mystic.

About the Author

Poet and playwright William Butler Yeats (1865–1939) was a key figure in the Irish literary revival and a founder of Dublin's Abbey Theatre. In 1923 he received the Nobel Prize in Literature, the first Irish citizen so honored, and he also served as a two-term senator for the Irish Free State.
