À propos de ce contenu audio
It’s 1939, and young Maeve O’Sullivan and her family are among the last inhabitants of a windswept island off the south coast of Ireland. After her father’s death, Maeve finds herself the last inheritor of the old ways of healing. But the future beckons to Maeve with the arrival of Seamus, a handsome young medical student heading for Dublin. Maeve suddenly finds herself at a crossroads, torn between the pull of the past and the lure of the modern. Must she sacrifice one in order to accommodate the other?
St Brigid, patroness of poetry, craft, and midwifery, hovers over this richly evocative story about the tension between progress and tradition. Timely and timeless, Kearney’s novel offers sensual homage to a singular landscape brimming with a Gaelic wisdom about the natural world.
Bursting with intimate contact with plants and sea creatures, who seem to grow from the writer’s pen as the origins of life might do, Salvage is a story about love, faith, and the future. In this gem of a book, rooted in ideas Richard Kearney has been developing for decades, the writing is about healing. It heralds the recovery of a rich Irish wisdom, something the world needs now more than ever.
