Ireland is a land of dramatic contrasts. From the wild beauty of Connaught's jagged coastline to the quiet charm of the leisurely River Shannon, the Emerald Isle entrances its visitors. Many of Ireland's most scenic spots are steeped in legend. Croagh Patrick, the holy mountain with a glittering quartzite cone, was supposedly climbed by Saint Patrick. Giant's Causeway, an amazing stepping-stone formation leading into the sea, is said to be the remains of a bridge for the giants to cross from Ireland to Scotland.Fro medieval island monasteries to the Georgian elegance of Dublin's squares, Ireland enjoys a wealth of architecture. Small, stone-built cottages nestle in to hillsides and ruined castles dominate mountain tops. Irish culture also has a timeless quality. Donkeys are still used as a means of transport, peat is still cut by hand and bars double up as general stores. In stunning photographs, this book celebrates a land of untamed beauty and friendly charm--Ireland.

Building from his acclaimed anthology, a beloved writer and editor draws together some of the world's greatest writers to illuminate how the environmental crisis impacts vulnerable communities. Over the past five years, the editor has launched a celebrated international literary magazine and compiled two anthologies addressing income inequality. A recurring theme in this work is how climate change exacerbates existing inequalities, particularly in less affluent nations, leading to increased migration to wealthier countries. Refugees often face significant challenges, including limited access to education, healthcare, housing, employment, and nutrition. The crisis also affects American citizens, as evidenced by stories of those displaced by hurricanes or unable to sell homes in flood-prone areas. Conversations with writers and activists have inspired a diverse collection of fiction, essays, poems, and reportage. Notable contributions include Margaret Atwood's dystopian poems, Lauren Groff's exploration of Florida, and Edwidge Danticat's reflections on Haiti. The anthology presents a human perspective on the climate crisis, featuring both established and emerging voices, including Daisy Johnson and Sayaka Murata. This collection offers a global view of our existential crisis, showcasing experiences from writers across the world, from Japan to Egypt to Indonesia.
