Yeats gathers his early verse plays, revised for the Abbey Theatre, with the lyrics of his twenties. The Countess Cathleen sells her soul to save a starving people from demon merchants, The Land of Heart’s Desire lures a young bride toward the fairies, and The Rose sequence retells Fergus, Cuchulain and the beauty that passes like a dream.
The Celtic Twilight Yeats at his most musical, for anyone tracing the road to his later greatness. Download the free EPUB.
