About the book

<p>Patsy Mac Cann spends his days wandering rural Ireland with his daughter Mary Mac Cann and their donkey. They set up camp for the night and are surprised by the appearance of three demi-gods.

The group begins their adventure on the winding Irish roads, encountering locals—each with their own story to tell.</p> <p>In <i>The Demi-Gods</i> <a href="https://standardebooks.org/ebooks/james-stephens">James Stephen</a> takes us on a journey of storytelling, weaving in otherworldly and everyday stories about love, harmony, and materialism.
