In this compelling and highly readable biography, Kiely considers the philosophical and literary beliefs of one of Ireland's most controversial figures. It recounts the writer's fascinating life: his father's suicide when Stuart was an infant; his marriage at age seventeen to Maud Gonne's daughter. Iseult, a former lover of Ezra Pound's who had refused W.B Yeats' marriage proposals; his time as an IRA gunrunner during the Civil War; his burgeoning literary career and the many controversies that surrounded his broadcasts from Berlin for Hitler's Third Reich, inciting inciting accusations of anti-semitism. His acceptance into Aosdana, the Irish academy of artists and writers created further controversy including a successful libel suite against The Irish Times in his nineties.
