The Wanderings of Oisin
Book description
Why read it?
1 author picked The Wanderings of Oisin as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Yeats is one of my favourite poets, and while you may not associate him with fantasy, he did write some extraordinarily beautiful poems that are retellings of Irish folk tales and legends. Teeming with faeries, immortals, and other fey creatures, these are poems in the tradition of the great Romantic poets such as Byron, Shelley, Keats, and Tennyson. The titular poem is only one of many beautiful fantasy poems in this collection.
From Cassia's list on romantic fantasy poetry to make you swoon and sigh.
