Jacket design by Owen Wood. keywords: Literature America Women. FROM THE PUBLISHER-Miss Rukeyser, a distinguished American poet and biographer, went to the town of Killorglin on the coast of Kerry because Paul Rotha had advised her to. He had told her that this drab little place came alive once every year on an astonishing occasion called Puck Fair. There are other towns which have annual fairs to which people come in from miles around, where tinkers gather and where a cattle-market is held, so why is this one astonishing? This book makes it clear. Puck is a fair at which a he-goat is elevated to kingship-almost for worship; a fair the ancient origins of which, however deeply buried in people's consciousness, are still clearly present before their eyes and still make themselves felt, beating like a pulse throughout three strange days. Miss Rukeyser's account of her experience of Puck Fair is a triumph. At one level it is a vivid, racy, often funny account of events as they happened, and at another it is a poet's brilliant apprehension of the deep currents still running under the surface of modern life. inventory #16820.
