“This is a female text, written in the twenty-first century. How late it is. How much has changed. How little.” - from A Ghost in the Throat
Claire Mabey speaks to Irish writer Doireann Ní Ghríofa about her astonishingly beautiful, boundary-breaking book that has captured the hearts and minds of readers across the world since its release during lockdown in 2020. At once memoir, scholarship and auto-fiction, A Ghost in the Throat blends the author’s own story together with her efforts to call forth the life of the 18th Century writer Eibhlín Dubh Ní Chonaill.
A Post Irish Book of the Year 2020
‘A book like this comes along once every few years and obliterates every clear definition of genre and form. I mean no exaggeration here: A Ghost in the Throat is astounding and utterly fresh.’ - The Irish Independent
