The Once and Future Celt

Bill’s journey into manhood has taken him through England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. Now Bill finds himself stranded in a Gypsy camp. With an injured foot, the 21-year-old adventurer is comforted by the beautiful and elusive Riena, but then makes his way back home to Birmingham, where he finds himself set adrift on unemployment in recessionary England. Bill learns a family secret from his Welsh father, chases yet another girl, and finds some wisdom to close his long journey of self-discovery.
