Description

Thirsty Ghosts by Emer Martin is an epic intergenerational saga that weaves together the threads of Ireland's complex history. This energetic new work brings together two families, their lives intertwined with the country's mythological past, Tudor plantations, Magdalene laundries, and 1980s Dublin. Dark humor and high literary style are used to explore themes of power, class, fertility, violence, and deep love in a post-colonial Ireland still haunted by history. The result is a revelatory exploration of the country's past, its people, and their struggles. With its unique blend of the savagely funny and heartbreaking, Thirsty Ghosts is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in Irish literature and history.
