Tim Robinson
In 1999, Tim Robinson established himself as one of Ireland's most brilliant nonfiction writers with the two-volume ,Stones of Aran,, a tribute to the unspoiled wild of Ireland's Aran Islands. With ,Connemara,, he creates an indelible portrait of a small corner of the world. From the unmarked graves of unbaptized infants to the shimmering peaks of the Twelve Pins, Robinson brings his close attention and dazzling prose to describe the mountains, bogs, shorelines, and landscape of his home and, at the same time, make a great statement about the world at large.
