Irish Folk and Fairy Tales

William Butler Yeats

Step into a world of enchantment, mystery, and ancient magic with this mesmerizing collection of Irish folklore, curated by one of Ireland’s greatest literary voices, William Butler Yeats. Drawing from centuries of oral tradition, Irish Folk and Fairy Tales brings together tales of mischievous fairies, heroic warriors, tragic lovers, and eerie spirits that haunt the emerald hills and misty glens of Ireland.

From the whimsical to the haunting, these stories capture the soul of a people whose myths and legends were deeply woven into the fabric of everyday life. Yeats' lyrical prose, rich in rhythm and reverence, breathes new life into age-old tales—preserving a fading oral tradition with poetic beauty and scholarly care.

Yeats’ was both a literary and cultural mission when he collected these tales, driven by a deep love for Irish heritage and a desire to preserve the oral traditions of Ireland in the face of modernity and colonial influence. What better way to appreciate them than by hearing them read by the inimitable Gerard Doyle, whose warmth and depth bring Yeats' beloved collection vividly to life. Doyle’s captivating voice and nuanced delivery transport listeners to a bygone world where the veil between the natural and supernatural is thin, and wonder lurks in every shadow.

Perfect for lovers of folklore, poetry, and Irish heritage, this audiobook is both a cultural treasure and a spellbinding listening experience.

William Butler Yeats (1865–1939) was an Irish poet, playwright, and literary critic who was a pivotal figure in the Irish Literary Revival. Awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1923, he was instrumental in founding the Abbey Theatre and served as a Senator in the Irish Free State. His work is known for drawing on Irish mythology, exploring themes of love and loss, and evolving from Romanticism to a more modern style.
