Here in Ireland's most ancient texts, oral and written in the 8th and 9th centuries, is an audacity of speculation and creation animating traditional stories. Tales of kings, priests, warriors and musicians, goddesses and scaldcrows reveal the heartbeat or the ordinary in the extraordinary, the flight of the mind, the eye of the imagination, continuing where Synge, Yeats and Lady Gregory left off a century ago.
