I cried with Ní Ghríofa and I rejoiced with her as she followed the life of Eibhlín Dubh Ní Chonaill. Adding in the Caoineadh at the end felt like such a triumph. The slow and circular writing always comes together and unlike many many other slowly paced books Ní Ghríofa pulls it off. She makes Ní Chonaill come to life again and seamlessly melds her modern life with her beloved poet.
Past becomes present again. Absolutely my favorite genre of modern literature.
