More about the book

Exploring the dreamlike realm of Irish faery and folklore, the book offers an anthropological glimpse into the beliefs and superstitions shared by County Sligo peasants in the late 19th century. Beyond mere entertainment, it serves as Yeats' call to embrace a more magical perspective on life and nature, suggesting that the spiritual world is closer than perceived. The narrative emphasizes the sacredness of springs, the soul of trees, and the shimmering spirituality of the air, advocating for a deeper connection to the unseen aspects of existence.
