The Miraculous Parish

en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 mai 2014

A generation before the groundbreaking achievements of Eavan Boland, Nuala N Dhomhnaill, Biddy Jenkinson, Medbh McGuckian, Eil an N Chuillean in, Rita Ann Higgins, and others, and in more daunting social circumstances, M ire Mhac an tSaoi's poetry speaks to and from the intimate experience of women at a time when women's voices were largely inaudible, on the margins of Irish literature and society. This bilingual selection of her work is the first substantial collection to introduce her poems to an English-language audience and a reminder to readers of Irish as to why she is one of the most significant poets to emerge since the beginning of the language revival almost a century and a half ago.
