‘This book, I suppose, must be a sort of phenomenon. It shouldn’t really be here.’ Sin a deir Bobi Jones sa réamhrá leis an gcnuasach seo agus is dócha go ndéanfaidh gach duine iontas de lion na bhfilí Coirnise (beagnach 40 acu) agus de fhad agus réimse an traidisiúin.

‘This book’ says Bobi Jones in his introduction to this anthology, ‘must be a sort of phenomenon. It shouldn’t really be here.’ Certainly, most people will be surprised at the number of Cornish poets (almost 40 represented here) and the depth and range of the Cornish poetic tradition.
