The History of My Family
William Butler Yeats's "Leda", Her Murder, and Why He Abandoned His Son.
The author clarifies controversial events in William Butler Yeats's life, such as sudden heart troubles and depression from June 1925, his notorious Divorce Bill speech, the riots over O'Casey's production of 'The Plough and the Stars' and Yeats's obsession with Purgatory. His wife George was his amanuensis; this essay explains her motivation for altering details in his works and hoarding his papers after his death. She insisted that Yeats's alter egos and 'masks' were psychic creations of a genius; this essay shows they were real disguises that George had to suppress in order to hide her own role in the murder of Yeats's extra-marital lover.

Über den Autor
Since 2006, when Patricia Hughes first discovered the close resemblance of her father to William Butler Yeats, she has been researching and writing about what happened. Starting with a collection of her first research notes in 'William Butler Yeats and the Murder of Honor Bright', she progressed to An Analysis of Selected Poetry by William Butler Yeats between 1918 and 1928, before finally writng all her research findings into 'Who Killed Honor Bright? How William Butler and George Yeats Caused the Fall of the Irish Free State.' The essay in this book was a result of a talk she gave in 2015 at the University of Florence in Italy. It was published by Professor Fiorenzo Fantaccini of the Department of Irish Studies in the journal Studi Inglese'.
