Angus is one of the earliest Celtic deities and one of the most beloved. Son of the Dagda, the chief of the Celtic gods, and Boann, a water spirit, Angus is the god of love, youth, and beauty. He is a trickster and a romantic, a combination of Eros and Apollo. He is much loved by women and a breaker of hearts. He will reveal to you in a dream your true love, if asked, and if in the mood. Around his head there are four birds fluttering - each of which is a kiss. In Alexander McCall Smith's retelling, five different young men named Angus find themselves living the myths of Angus, from his search for the girl he loves to his discovery that the man who raised him is not his father. In the hands of one of the great storytellers living today, Dream Angus will charm and mesmerize listeners.
