One of the great novels in the Irish comic tradition
The Crock of Gold, first published in 1912, consists of six parts. Bringing together pagan gods, policemen, prisoners, leprechauns, and animals, the narrative concerns a philosopher and his quest to find the most beautiful woman in the world, Cáitilin Ni Murrachu, who has been abducted by the god Pan.
His journey takes him from dark forests to the spectacular heights of pagan gods, as he experiences encounters that will change him forever.
With its unique combination of philosophy and Irish folklore, The Crock of Gold is full of humor, its central themes including the battle of the sexes and the difference between men and women.
