Seven stories, one protagonist: Ireland, tirelessly evoked by Maeve Brennan and her anti-heroines. Whether fragile or tyrannical, stunted by the role they are meant to play or overcome with nostalgia for a home left behind in a rush, the women in these stories experience love, beauty and generosity as distant, fading lights. The promise of harmony, however unattainable, at least provides them with the comfort of a dream of happiness. This selection contains several stories published in The Rose Garden by Counterpoint Press.
