Millions of Irish people have left their native country behind, and millions of tourists visit every year, yet the island never seems to lose its hold on their minds and hearts. Here is the proof: three centuries of fiction, poems, and essays, both from Irish expatriates like Oscar Wilde and George Bernard Shaw, and from non-Irish visitors like Virginia Woolf and Paul Theroux.From the comic terror of Frank McCourt's First Communion to the raucous pagan festival Muriel Rukeyser attended in County Kerry in the 1930s; from John Betjeman's lyrical evocation of a ruined abbey in the mist to Eric Newby's hilariously disastrous bicycle trip through Ireland; from William Trevor's gentle Irish clergyman encountering the long angry reach of his country's past tragedies to Brian Moore's wistful return from a life spent in exile, this anthology offers a kaleidoscope of this mysterious, elusive country. For travelers of all kinds, for those who have long been fascinated by Ireland and those who are feeling its lure for the first time, Ireland in Mind will provide a rich and rewarding imaginative journey.
