The Celtic Twilight: Myth, Fantasy and Folklore (Paperback)

William Butler Yeats was a poet, a mystic, an initiate of the Golden Dawn -- arguably the most influential esoteric order in the Western magical tradition. In The Celtic Twilight, he returns to his roots in Irish folklore to call up a dazzling array of sorcerers, faeries, ghosts, and nature spirits. The result is an enchanting tribute to the visionary heart of Irish folk tradition -- and the memory of the poet who would not let it die.
