An Irish Midsummer Night’s Dream: A Legend of the Shannon is a novel written by John Bickerdyke in 1884. The story is set in Ireland and follows the misadventures of a group of young lovers who become entangled in a series of magical and supernatural events. The plot revolves around the annual Midsummer festival, during which the fairy queen Titania and her court come to the mortal world to play pranks on unsuspecting humans. The novel is a retelling of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, but with an Irish twist. Bickerdyke weaves together Irish folklore, mythology, and local customs to create a unique and enchanting tale. The book is filled with colorful characters, witty dialogue, and vivid descriptions of the Irish landscape. It is a charming and delightful read that captures the magic and mystery of Ireland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
