Found and Lost
As good as Eilis Dillon's earlier stories were, none of them can top "The Singing Cave" for narrative pace, atmosphere, or suspense. The villagers are all sharply and distinctively sketched. Ever present in the background are the restless sea, the shrilling winds and the wild splendor of the Irish coast.
