Robin Flower's The Western Island, first published in 1945, well after the years the book describes, is a beautiful memoir of Flower's early days on the Islands. He brings to life many of the Great Blasket's well-loved storytellers and characters, among them Tomás Ó Criomhthain, Peig Sayers and Séan Ó Duínnlé. This is a new reprint of the original text along with Flower's wife Ida's evocative drawings.
