Irish Fairy Tales
1990
Step into a mist-shrouded Ireland where magic bleeds into the mortal world and love is worth any sacrifice. These aren't polite nursery tales; they're wild, aching stories of enchantment and devotion. At the heart of this collection lies the spellbinding tale of Princess Finola, a beautiful girl imprisoned by enchantment on a desolate moor, and the dwarf who loves her fiercely enough to attempt the impossible. Armed with nothing but determination and the strange, ancient logic of fairy lore, he embarks on a quest for magical items that will break her curse. The journey is fraught with trials that test his courage and his heart. This is Irish folklore at its most elemental: stories where sadness has power, where magic demands a price, and where the smallest hero can triumph through sheer stubborn love. These tales have circulated for generations, passed from storyteller to hearthside listener, and they retain their ancient power to transport readers to a world where the veil between worlds is gossamer thin.
