Rosses Point | Co. Sligo | IRELAND
The county of Sligo is often referred to as Yeats Country – the land of the famous Irish writer William Butler Yeats. Rosses Point, where Yeats used to spend his summer holidays, could therefore appropriately be called the heart of Yeats country. Just like today’s visitors, he will have enjoyed the beautiful promenade, the beach and the view of Ben Bulben. Another landmark, the “Waiting On Shore” memorial, however, did not exist at Yeats’ time.
“Hunted by a man-made monster, they fled into an empty world, two last survivors who dared to gamble for the dawn of a new forbidden day . . . “

"When Wyndham Smith is transported to the 45th century, he finds himself fighting a sterile dystopia in which machines have created a sterile womb for mankind, without pain or suffering. Humanity is on the verge of deliberate racial suicide, but Wyndham and Vinetta escape the doomed city, fleeing to Sicily. There they must fight a Man Killer robot that has been programmed to eliminate the last hope of mankind. Can the two lovers defeat this implacable metal monster?"
[Description from the 2009 Borgo Press edition of the novel, which has been re-titled "Wyndham Smith: His Adventures in the 45th Century: A Science Fiction Novel"]
