About this event
Banshee: Mythological Irish Women Retold is an exhilarating and richly imagined anthology, which breathes new life into ancient Irish myths. The collection features some of Ireland’s most electrifying female writers, reclaiming these myths in new and powerful ways, putting the bold and brilliant women from these ancient tales front and centre of their own stories. Banshee transports you to treacherous landscapes and mystical islands of old, where the women no longer stand in the shadows of kings and warriors but forge their own paths.
Join the anthology’s editor, Ailbhe Malone, and two of the anthology’s contributors, Naoise Dolan and Anne Griffin, for a captivating and transportive evening of conversation.
