Book: On the Edge
Summary: The book explores the reality of the islands off the coast of Ireland, which for centuries have sparked interest in ancient Irish culture and their romantic atmosphere. However, the life of the islanders was complex, as they experienced poverty, hardship, and official hostility, while being asked to maintain an ancient culture. Through personal diaries, records, and journalistic coverage, the reality behind the image of these islands is revealed. The exodus of the populations and the gap between the rhetoric extolling life on the islands and the political hostility surrounding them is analyzed.
