SIGNED BY JOHN MOSS on half title page; Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; John Moss is a Canadian writer more at home on the Arctic tundra than among the residue of an ancient European culture, who during a year's stay in Ireland, found himself enthralled and sometimes appalled by his observations on Irish language, landscape, and society. In this penetrating, lyrical, and strangely imaginative response to Ireland he is moved to reflect on the genius of Canadian experience in a context at one familiar and foreign. He shares his anger, frustration, and engagement with Ireland, reinvents history, renews his affection for Canada, and shares with the reader his personal journey towards reconciliation with an imperfect world.
