A Ghost in the Throat
From €18.00Sale Price
A Ghost in the Throat is a powerful and deeply personal exploration of obsession, creativity, and the enduring voices of women in literature. In this remarkable hybrid work, Doireann Ní Ghríofa intertwines her own experiences of motherhood and writing with the story of an eighteenth-century Irish poet whose work captivates her imagination.
Moving between memoir, literary criticism, and poetic reflection, the book becomes an intimate meditation on language, identity, and the act of storytelling itself. Ní Ghríofa’s lyrical prose draws readers into a world where past and present speak to each other across centuries.
Selected by Chapter & Vines for readers who appreciate thoughtful, beautifully written literary works.
