PAPERBACK, very good lightly used copy, several pages dog-eared at top. HYLAND, SARA. I call to the eye of the mind: a memoir. Edited by Maureen Murphy. Dublin: Attic Press, 1996, 205pp., . In 1908 Sara Hyland, a young woman from the Pembroke Cottages in Dundrum, south County Dublin, went to work for Lily Yeats in the embroidery workshop of the Dun Emer, later Cuala Industries. Her recollections of growing up in Dundrum at the turn of the century and her years with the Yeats sisters offer insights into many aspects of life at that time, including the working of the Cuala Industries, the writers and artists of the Irish Renaissance and the Troubles. Above all there is Sara's life; her sense of adventure, her independence and her own interests: music, the Irish language, Irish history, politics and culture which form the tapestry against which her work is set. With an introduction and informative notes by Professor Maureen Murphy, Sara s is a unique voice in twentieth-century women s history. 9781855941489 ISBN 1855941481.
