About the Author

Martin Lahiff can’t explain why he has spent over eighty years under what William Shakespeare might have called the Spell of the Muse. That spell continues to bother us, writers and readers alike, who waste valuable time looking for worth in a world that knows otherwise. His book, Iona, records the raids of the Muse over the course of his lifetime, from his early college enlightenments at a school by that name in New Rochelle, New York, through the civil rights and hippie movements of the Sixties in San Francisco, the misery of Communist Europe, the emergence of Moslems in the East, thirty years deep in Mexico due to another kind of spell that has lasted 53 years, and his job as a U.S. consul.
