Feather and Bone

A travelogue along the ancient pilgrim paths of Ireland by a self-confessed 'a la carte' Catholic.

This debut collection of poetry from the Donegal-based writer and linguist Eithne Ní Ghallchobhair addresses Irish nature and a day in the life of a hare. This collection was shortlisted for the 2020 Irish Language Book of the Year Award.

This pioneering anthology goes beyond awareness building to engage seriously with the societal prevalence of sexist abuse and domestic violence, and the legacies of that abuse and violence in the lives of survivors. Approaching difficult subject matter with candor, sensitivity, and grace, the volume is timely, and deeply moving.
