Arlen House

A collection of pioneering essays by one of the leading researchers in Irish womens history, this is a sister collection to Margaret Mac Curtains Ariadnes Thread: Writing Women into Irish History.

Although Rainer Maria Rilke is better known for his work in German, he also wrote more than four hundred poems in French. This collection is a response to Rilke's influence and to his French oeuvre, in particular the book Migration des Forces.

This collection includes three plays by Celia de Freine: Anraith Neantoige, Coirin na dTonn, and Tearmann.

'Some of the finest poems being published in Ireland today.' - Lucy Collins, The Irish Times 'The reader is especially captivated by Celia de Freine's portrayal of ordinary women who unexpectedly choose to fly.' - Manuela Palacios-Gonzalez, Estudios Irlandeses
