Description
Bright I Burn by Molly Aitken In 17th-century Ireland, a woman was condemned as a witch, marking the beginning of a dark chapter in the country's history. This powerful and thought-provoking novel is based on the true story of this pioneering figure, exploring themes of power, patriarchy and sexuality. Through a blazing narrative, Aitken sheds light on a pivotal moment in Irish history, one that continues to resonate today. With unflinching honesty and nuance, she examines the complexities of a society torn apart by fear, superstition and oppression. This is a searing and unflinching portrayal of a woman's struggle for survival and self-discovery in a world determined to silence her.
