"When we first met, I was a child, and she had been dead for centuries.'
1772, Cork. A man is ambushed and shot dead. On discovering her husband's murder, an Irish noblewoman drinks handfuls of his blood and composes an extraordinary poem. Eibhlín Dubh Ní Chongaill's 'Caoineadh Airt Uí Laoghaire' would be described as 'the greatest poem written in these islands in the whole of the eighteenth century.'
The poem echoes across time to find a woman in modern Ireland, who reads it aloud and feels Eibhlín's voice coming to life. These echoes grow louder, inspiring a quest to discover the truth of the poet's story.
