Illustrated by
P. J. Lynch.
Eight tales from early Irish literature, including "The Children of Lir" and "The Birth of Cuchulainn," are retold in this elegant volume. Lynch's watercolor and gouache illustrations capture both the longing and fierce drama in these retellings, while Seamus Heaney's translation from the Irish of the poem "Summer" is an added treat. A pronunciation guide and source notes are appended. Bib.
