"I went out to the hazel wood,
Because a fire was in my head,
And cut and peeled a hazel wand,
And hooked a berry to a thread.."

---from "The Song of Wandering Aengus" by W.B. Yeats

The Salmon of Knowledge is a mythical creature in Irish folklore associated with poetry and knowledge of deep truths. Any person who ate a bit of the fish would become wise and know the essence of all things.

Which leads one to wonder: what is the nature of this wisdom?

The Story of Tuan Mac Cairill suggests an answer to this question. I love this story and hope you enjoy it too.
