Our flagship author has finally come home, welcomed by Fintan O Toole in his foreword: One of the great joys of these essays is the discovery of sentences as sharp and lithe as a Toledo rapier. The Appleman and the Poet places a capstone upon a project begun with Escape from the Anthill in 1985. Butler s essays, written over six decades, establish him as one of Ireland s great twentieth- century prose writers and thinkers.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Hubert Butler (1900-1991) was an acclaimed Irish writer, essayist, and critic known for his insightful explorations of Irish identity, history, and culture. Born in Kilkenny, Butler was educated at the Royal Holloway College, London, and later returned to Ireland, where he became deeply engaged in the literary and political landscape of his time. His works often reflect a profound moral and philosophical inquiry, blending personal experience with broader social themes. A lifelong advocate for human rights and social justice, Butler s perspectives were shaped by his experiences during World War II and his interest in the plight of refugees and displaced persons. His unique voice and intellectual rigor have earned him a lasting place in Irish literature.
