Summary "Spiritual Tales" by Fiona Macleod is a collection of legendary stories written in the late 19th century. This anthology showcases a series of spiritual narratives infused with Celtic mythology and moral reflections, depicting characters from ancient tales, including the noble Dùvach and the enigmatic Bride. The tales explore deep themes of love, sacrifice, and human connection to the divine, often framed against the ethereal beauty of nature. At the start of "Spiritual Tales," we are introduced to Dùvach, a herdsman living on the isle of Iona, who is actually of noble lineage but bears the weight of exile due to a past wrong. Accompanying him is a child named Bride, who is characterized by her extraordinary beauty and mysterious origins. The narrative unfolds as Dùvach grapples with his past and the prophecy surrounding Bride, hinting at her divine destiny. The storytelling weaves together rich imagery and lyrical prose as it immerses readers in the mystical realm of the Isles, setting the stage for tales that blend mythology with morality.
