The Harp That Once .... a-coming-of-age novel, but with a haunting
difference.
Christopher Bennett is a product of Ireland in the 1950's, a
circumstance and historical moment very different from the hectic,
present-day era of the 'Celtic Tiger.' Neighbours live safely in
the arms of tradition; the fixed opinion is precisely that. The
guardians of the system comport themselves "like those animals and
plants whose defence mechanisms are forever at the ready to sting,
poison, or swallow real or imaginary enemies."
Christopher, too, is firmly rooted in this tight universe, yet he
also resides in the "thin place" of a higher plane. In these
realms, the truly mundane constantly rubs shoulders with the
mystical and far removed. Ultimately, it takes an insightful reader
to land both fish at the end of the same line.
The Harp That Once gives us an adventure, a challenge, and a tale
that will haunt, long after the last page is turned.
