A collection of nine of the great Irish writer's stories set in her homeland. One of the most highly regarded novelists of this century and a prolific writer of short stories, she made the short story peculiarly her own and some of her Irish stories—including "Her Table Spread", "Summer Night", and "The Happy Autumn Fields", all included in this collection, are considered by Glendinning, who was her official biographer, to be among her greatest.
