Lately I've been seeing a lot of wonderful photographs of Ireland online via Pinterest and posts on Facebook by persons residing in Ireland. I was looking forward to seeing more of the beauty that I'd seen in those photographs. I was quite disappointed with the choices made in this volume. The narratives did not offer the criteria the photographer/author made in selecting villages nor did the individual sketches. I was disappointed that some of the villages that I've seen depicted in other media were not included here. This is a book for the coffee table more than a travel guide.

Onderdeel van de reeks(en)
Clusters of white cottages huddled between hills of an unbelievably rich green, villages of a single street, dazzling in their array of color washes and picturesque shop-fronts--such are the villages of Ireland, which to this day are living working communities.The most beautiful of these villages are captured here in Christopher Fitz-Simon's sensitive commentaries and Hugh Palmer's evocative photographs. This is a journey full of rural gems, some famous, others less so. Here are the colored coastal villages of Cork, their vibrant houses sloping down to a sea that so many Irish people crossed to found other communities in America. Here too are the stunning medieval churches of Roscommon and Galway; and the villages of Antrim, standing ruggedly in defiance of the northern seas. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
