Marie Heaney, who is married to poet Seamus, has explored the
legacy of Northern Ireland in her own fashion, with a luminous
account of the Celtic legends. In Over Nine Waves: A Book of Irish
Legends she untangles the complex deeds of the Sidhe or fairy folk,
the terrible but exciting web of murders, abductions and passions.
Reviewed by novelist, critic and cultural historian Marina Warner
(Kirkus UK)
'These legends are the action-packed stories - of ancient heroes,
huge battles, attempted invasions, prophecies and spells, clashes
between the underworld and the real world, abductions, love affairs
and feasts - which have fascinated the Irish mind for more than
2,000 years . . . Most of them have an extraordinary, stark
narrative sweep, with a marvellous sense of detail . . . Heaney
writes directly and fluently . . . with great tact and skill.'
