Description
These stories have been told for 2,000 years. At their heart stands the great Ulster hero, Cuchulainn and on his shoulder sits a dark goddess in the form of a crow. She is the mistress of chaos, surveying the slaughter as he whirls in fury through an ancient yet still familiar world. Their dynamic force has helped shape the history of Ireland - its tribes, its warrior queens, its dispossessed kings. Harnessing the imagination of a modern storyteller, using often overlooked material, this work is an exhilarating retelling of an epic journey - following our champion from a disputed birth through to the battle of the bulls and beyond.
