An excellent snapshot of this period in Irish history. Was really interesting to reflect back on the Repeal movement and the art and writings that propelled it forward.

It was definitely interesting to read this during a heatwave!! I liked some elements of this book such as the parts about the Nordic countries which brought me a lot of nostalgia for the semester I spent in Sweden. I also really enjoyed how much Gaelic lore is in it, which I hadn’t expected. However, I did find it a bit repetitive and wishy washy.

”When you see something that is not right, not fair, not just, you have a moral obligation to say something”
Definitely the most powerful Eddie Flynn book I’ve read yet, though I’ve still a few to catch up on. I thoroughly enjoyed this!!!! Keep em coming Steve
