Excerpt from Hurrish, Vol. 1 of 2: A Study
Wilder regions there are few to be found, even in the wildest west of Ireland, than that portion of north Clare known to its inhabitants as "The Burren." Seen from the Atlantic, which washes its western base, it presents to the eye a succession of low hills, singularly grey in tone, - deepening often, towards evening, into violet or dull reddish plum colour - sometimes, after sunset, to a pale ghostly iridescence.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an intimate and in-depth exploration of Irish identity and tradition through the life of Hurrish O'Brien, a giant of a man inhabiting the rocky wilderness of the Burren. The author captures the stark beauty of this ancient landscape, while also delving into the political and social issues that shaped Ireland in the 19th century. Hurrish's world is one of extremes, where the ancient Celtic temperament of poetic excitability and emotion clashes with the cruel realities of famine and oppression. The book explores the ways in which individuals navigate personal and communal struggles amidst these stark conditions, highlighting the underlying tensions between tradition and modernity and the enduring power of human spirit amid hardship and adversity.
