Salann Garbh

Joe Steve Ó Neachtain

Paperback. Bog/Paperback 136 lch. Seo an dara cnuasach gearrscéalta ó Joe Steve Ó Neachtain ó foilsíodh Clochmhóin breis agus deich mbliana ó shin, agus b’fhiú fanacht. Ach, ar ndóigh, níor lig sé a chuid maidí le sruth: tá dhá úrscéal, drámaí agus cnuasach filíochta foilsithe ó shin aige. Ach is é an filleadh seo ar an ngearrscéal, an fhoirm liteartha is dúchasaí sa nGaeilge, b’fhéidir, a léiríonn máistreacht an údair ar cheird an scríbhneora. Bíonn blas ar an mbeagán, deirtear, agus beidh plátaí á nglanadh agus méarach á liochán nuair a bheas an greim seo slogtha siar. A deeply personal and compelling collection of short stories from Joe Steve Ó Neachtain addressing issues such as domestic violence, faith and land ownership. An enjoyable, insightful and compelling read.
