Description
A Ghost in the Throat by Doireann Ní Ghríofa is a unique and thought-provoking prose debut that explores the connection between two writers across centuries. The author weaves together elements of essay and autofiction to examine the inner life and the parallels between an extraordinary poem written in the 1700s, and a young woman's own experiences in the present day. When she discovers the poem, she becomes obsessed with uncovering its story, leading her on a journey that ultimately frees her voice by reaching into the past. This is a devastating and deeply personal tale about one woman finding her voice through the discovery of another's story.
