Anam Cara: A Book of Celtic Wisdom John O’ Donoghue- Irish Poet & Scholar
I love all his books, particularly, 'Anam Cara', 'Conamara Blues' and 'Divine Beauty'. I found it tricky to pick one! John stayed with us and gave a workshop at our guesthouse Shelburne Lodge for American guests. He invited Tom and I to attend. It was inspirational to listen and watch this fascinating man talk ad lib about the spiritual wisdom from the Celtic world. He was close to nature, like Kavanagh and Heaney, and he believed that humour and compassion were the most essential ingredients in life. This is an exquisite book.
