This is a fascinating account of a walk from Malin Head, the northern most point of Ireland in county Donegal to Cape Clear Island in county Cork, the southern most point of Ireland by the English writer Christopher Somerville. It’s a compelling read even if you are not Irish. It’s heart wrenching if you are. The west coast of Ireland is the saddest, most beautiful, most musical and most mystical place on Earth according Somerville who walked its more than 700 miles in the early 1990s. It’s an amazing story of an intriguing journey with a wonderful title. You will not be disappointed.
