Quench the Moon cover

From the author of Seek the Fair Land, The Silent People and The Scorching Wind

This is the story of Stephen O'Riordan, a true son of the wild and beautiful land of Connemara, of his hopes and ambitions, and of his passionate and stormy love for Kathleen, sister of his bitterest enemy . . .

It is also the story of Ireland after twenty-five years of liberty, like Stephen new in its freedom and thought yet primitive in its emotions, its people witty, bawdy, boozy, hard-working, loud-voiced or gentle - but never dull . . .

Where the writer knows and loves his country as Walter Macken does, there is warmth and life * Times Literary Supplement *
