Series: |
Wiliam Butler Yeats and Honor Bright 1 |
Description: |
An illegitimate child brought up by a foster family, my father had never known the identity of his father - only that he was a famous man. Yeats' biographies and poems revealed references to my father and his mother, foster mother and her best friend, and so the story began to unwind. |
Synopsis: |
This book examines Yeats' biographies in the years from 1918 to 1928 and the sudden reversal of his fortunes in June 1925. It is a memoir of the author's searches for her grandmother, decades after she was murdered and maligned as a prostitute in Dublin in 1925, and ends with a re-examination of Yeats' poems of this period to show that he was grieving for her and for their son. It is the history of the most terrible miscarriage of justice in the Irish Free State. |
