Description
Sightlines Beyond the Beyond in Ireland explores rural Irish life during a period of rapid change in the 1960s. Eileen Kane weaves a detailed account of traditional Irish-speaking villages, transporting readers to County Donegal with her signature humor and charm.
The government's plan to stem emigration and save the Irish language by supporting small factories in the Gaeltacht is examined, but is it working? This story delves into life on the edges, where people fall outside the boundaries of maps, language groups, and government departments.
