Gathered by the renowned Irish poet, playwright, and essayist William Butler Yeats, the sixty-five tales and poems in this delightful collection uniquely capture the rich heritage of the Celtic imagination. Filled with legends of village ghosts, fairies, demons, witches, priests, and saints, these stories evoke both tender pathos and lighthearted mirth and embody what Yeats describes as & the very voice of the people, the very pulse of life.& & The impact of these tales doesn't stop with Yeats, or Joyce, or Oscar Wilde,& writes Paul Muldoon in his Foreword, & for generations of readers in Ireland and throughout the world have found them flourishing like those persistent fairy thorns.& 'From the Trade Paperback edition.'

Née en 1929 en Algérie, repatriée en France pendant la guerre d'indépendance, Marie Cardinal fait partie de la génération de femmes écrivains qui prennent le devant de la scène littéraire française dans les années soixante-dix. L'oeuvre de Cardinal est une oeuvre personnelle mais aussi profondément politique. Elle dénonce les mécanismes qui oppriment les femmes et d'autres groupes. L'Algérie, la psychanalyse, les événements de mai 68 sont les trois expériences fondamentales sur lesquelles s'appuie son oeuvre. C'est presque toujours la même histoire qui se répète, comme chez Marguerite Duras. L'écriture obsessionnelle fait naître peu à peu le sujet féminin dans une langue riche, débarrassée des scories du sexisme. De livre en livre, à travers les différentes narratrices, l'épopée féminine se constitue. Cette étude nous convie à l'exploration de ce continent féminin et universel.
