Introduction to Ireland
The Republic of Ireland (and Northern Ireland, the contested region run by the Brits) are, by and large, sparsely developed with a striking, windswept landscape. The island is lush: a ring of coastal mountains surrounds a low central plain and the climate is mild. It was this environment that inspired the works of poets from W.B. Yeats to Seamus Heaney.
And Dublin and Belfast are true international cities packed with international hipsters, film houses, pubs and their own literary history, inspiring the more urban works of James Joyce and Bono.
