    About this ebook

    (An Irish-language title) A strong confident Northern voice. The Irish language is used here with classical precision and assurance. He evokes the mystique of his Donegal landscape with passion and gusto . . . This is the voice of a sophisticated contemporary craftsman. - Maire Mhac an tSaoi
