€œThe features of this volume which separate it from other anthologies are the quality and breadth of its selections and the fine introduction by the editor.€€"The Journal of Irish Literature
 
€œAn excellent selection. Each of the 26 writers represented in this collection has his own unmistakable tone . . . proof that Irish writers, perhaps like no others, excel in this brief form.€€"Spectator

€œYou will keep this book and read parts of it again and again. . . . Each time you enter it you will be in the presence of Ireland.€€"Anthony Burgess, in his Preface.
