First published in 1907, A Book of Saints and Wonders by Lady Gregory is a collection of lively retellings of saintly Irish tales and legends. Lady Gregory presents lyrical portraits of such saints, heroes, and holy men and women as Brigit, Columcille, St. Patrick, and many others.Many of these accounts draw heavily from the oral tradition of Ireland, and Lady Gregory’s prose takes care to preserve the cadence of local speech while ensuring that these stories are still accessible to a modern audience. Readers of all ages seeking tales of miracles, pilgrimages, and otherworldly voyages, as well as those interested in hagiography and the Gaelic revival, will be delighted with this enchanting Celtic collection.
