I put a huge amount of work into this article. I'm quite happy with it. I'd never actually seen the famous book before I did my research for this piece.
It's hard to think of anything more quintessentially Irish than the Book of Kells. Certainly, when I contemplate its pictures and decorations, I have a sense of being spiritually at home in a way that's hard to compare to anything else. But I mean "home" in a certain sense-- home not as a resting place, but as a horizon.
Anyway, buy it if you can! Even if you don't like my article (and I hope you will), you'll like others!
Congratulations! It looks magnificent and I am sure the article lives up to the cover. Whether they sell Ireland's Own this side of the Irish Sea I don't know, but I'll keep an eye out for it.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Somehow I don't think they sell Ireland's Own over there, but who knows?
