Stories of Red Hanrahan

About the book

"Stories of Red Hanrahan" by W. B. Yeats is a collection of short stories published in 1897. The stories follow Owen Red Hanrahan, a red-haired hedge schoolmaster and wandering poet based on the Irish bard Owen Roe O'Sullivan. Rooted in Irish folklore and tradition, the tales trace Hanrahan's encounters with supernatural forces and mysterious women as he journeys through the countryside, particularly during significant moments like Samhain Eve, when the boundary between worlds grows thin.
